Our Swingball Pro [serious stuff!] finally went to plastic toy heaven in the sky yesterday due to excessive use over the last few years, peaking over the last 2-3 weeks. 2 warnings to everyone.

1. My smallest kid has just been bought a Head Youtek Speed Graphene (Novak Djokovic), and this resulted in the ball bursting within 24 hours. Top marks for the boffins at Head - and I now have a 10 year old who thinks he's a professional!

2. There's not a replacement to be had in the whole country!!! John Lewis, Argos, Toys R Us, Smyths, Amazon all out of stock. Amazing what 2 weeks of fabulous weather and a British Wimbledon men's champion can do for the economy!
