Don't worry I certainly didn't take it that way :)

Mmmm well I'm no expert but they I would say are likely to be a disappointment to you. The ones I see around here feel a bit run down. There is a nice one over in Mosgiel that's attached to a cafe and plant shop so that does a nice trade.

I'm not really qualified to talk about their technical level of difficulty but when I play them I need to whack the ball often :)
