I'm sorry, I don't know why I made such a rude, pessimistic comment then. I think I was just in a really bad mood from work, although that's no excuse.
I can see you point about the tennis, I just find the whole thing a bit dry. Then again, I've never had much luck with tennis playing. Once my friend and I were playing around with my new rackets in the park, and a gang of kids (about 15 of them) pelted us with a a couple of dozen cartons of eggs after I refused to let them "play" (i.e. steal) with my rackets, not to mention a couple of black eyes from rogue tennis balls during P.E. I think it is much like my aversion to netball and hockey.
Disappointing about the football, even though I don't follow it anywhere near as much as I did as a child. Then again, all England-based sports always seem to be a bit on the disappointing side! I hope you find something else to bond over with your father, perhaps the Olympics?
