weekend 18th-19th of July
as it always happens, weekend just appears out of blue. im not expecting it to arive so soon after monday. well, getting older makes days pass way to quickly. so saturday morning i was on my way to harlow, Gareth’s Herbert’s(table tennis) coaching weekend. since ive got some other plans sunday, ive decided on saturday only coaching. Gareth is very good at it. he explains things clearly and shows what he expects out of it. more or less some stuff he was talking about was known to me, but just because ive got some good practices with Cris Sladen before, so footwork exercises were not that difficult to work on. good thing is ive learned new service, though it needs another, say… 4-5 hours, of practice to be comfortable to use it in matches. in the end of the session ive got a chance 15min to play Gareth himself, well not to play, but practice. my god, we’ve been doing two service’s each, if you break service, you serve yourself. needless to say, he broke my service without any efforts. so i need to work on mine really hard. on other hand, i did not managed to brake his service twice in a row. literally am rubbish at breaking services of players standart like Gareth, mostly because i see blade hitting the ball last second and am to slow to change my mind what am gonna do. anyway, saturday was good. got some plans to work on in my next practices.
sundays is more queiter, ive got some friends in my house before lunch, we had a tea, some pancakes, some good wine, and they just left. which leaves me all alone and thinking about a nap. err… i will do that.
