Croquet at Disaster Mansion, what has the world come to?

Okay the rest of the house still needs major work but at least we can host a croquet tournament. As hosts it was the right thing that we came in bang in last place, but to be honest we were rubbish. It wasn’t the easiest of courses and involved some pretty tricky trenches and down hill slopes. Tempers did flare and mallets were swung but no stitches were required. Some notable tricks shots were taken by snooker ace Joe the Mangrum, but at the end of the day the skilled ball and mallet work of Derrick propelled him to champion, well done Derrick!!!

We finished the evening off with a nice bbq and fire. Looking back at some old photos of the garden it’s nice to see some improvements.

  1. Looks like you were bad losers and burning the croquet set in the video. 🤔
    The grass looks great 👍🏼

    1. Ha ha I thought that was in the rules!!! We definitely need more practice. Grass is a bit patchy in places but we will add some grass seed shortly. It’s been a bit dry here this summer.
