Like almost everything here, tennis is expensive!  Gone are the days when we could just pick up the raquets, go to the courts and play all morning.  Now we have to schedule time on the public courts in Holland Park a week in advance and pay �4.50 (about $7.40) per hour!  And what do you get for all that money?  Indoor courts? Lights?  Tight Nets?  Smooth precision surface? Ha!  But at least we do get to play sometimes....
