Me and Fred hitting a few balls earlier today.

We missed the birthday vid a few weeks back as we never really got round to it, but this is us hitting a few balls earlier today.

Me and Fred hitting a few balls earlier today. I'm only really there to pick the ball up nowadays. He has far too much power and deception on his shots for me to compete any more.

We are a bit late this Summer due to holidays and Fred being away training. He's getting stronger and faster and games tend to be a little one-sided. He is using Airoc Astro on a Clipper blade, but will be getting hold of some Genesis Shortly.

As we will be busy for the next couple of days, this is our last chance to record his birthday video. Technically he is still 2 days short of his birthday, but no one will ever know. These are some of the longer rallies (where I wasn't made to look too silly by him,) from a few games earlier today.

Some of the less uninteresting points from our 4 games on New Year's Eve while everyone else was partying.

Us hitting a few balls this morning. Fred is using Stiga Airoc Astro M Max on FH, and Airoc Astro S Max on BH on a Stiga Clipper blade. Apologies for the poor sound quality. My usual camera battery only lasted about 3 mins, so the first part was recorded on my iPod which didn't pick up the sound very well. The second part was recorded on my wife's iPad which picked up the sound better.

A few quick shots from Fred's Grandparent's garden earlier in the summer.

We are not around to make a proper vid at the start of the summer hols, so here are some clips of a few points from some games we had at the weekend. He is learning to move me around a bit more and place the ball better, but I still have a few tricks up my sleeves. Now powered by a Stiga Clipper blade with Stiga Airoc M on FH and Airoc S on BH.

It was Fred's 12th birthday last week and today was the first chance we have had to get out with the video camera.

Table Tennis England persist in their policy of excluding many talented players from their training squads (and national selection) due to the fact that they can't afford the ridiculous costs involved. Instead of spending their time telling us all that Table Tennis is a sport for all, they should be more honest about the glass ceiling which exists for any youngsters who don't have the cash join...

Sadly Table Tennis England persist in asking kids to shell out a huge amount of cash to be eligible to play for England. It is dressed up a coaching fees to attend their training camps, but in reality the cash is only paid to fast track your kids into the England setup. We are not playing ball. Anyway, this vid shows me and Fred hitting a few balls this morning. He finally seems to be getting b...
