I'm loving playing in a mixed netball comp. But I've discovered that it's a brutal game on the body, and coming to it at 50, cold, was a bit of a shock to the system. It's my favourite sport to watch on TV now too, most of the others have been ruined by poor governance, driven by big money. I think for a long time on here, for example, I said cricket was destroying itself - I kind of feel vindicated after recent events. And Formula 1, another previous favourite, is an international joke.
