Finally!

[flick]

Esk has finally done her duty, so for my lunch today I had the first duck egg of the year!

(I also had one of the veg box hen eggs, just to check, and even though they're free range from a small farm they really don't taste anything like as nice.)

This morning, I was catching up on the last couple of Archers omnibuses. Am I the only one who, after the first session of nets, assumed Usha was being deliberately crap-but-perky to make Lilly and Molly feel more at ease? I was thoroughly expecting her to wait a few weeks and then 'fess up to actually having played for her university team or similar. I certainly didn't expect what's actually happening. I didn't expect to be saying "Hello Tiger", either....

I was surprised at Usha, too, but it may be a generational thing. She's now in her late 50s and may have been discouraged from sport.

I think it was just the way she behaved the first time at nets, having gone in there with the aim of getting The Girls settled in. It really made me think that she was doing it deliberately!
