Which ball do you have the fondest memories of?

If you're Irish, is there any chance the spoons were EPNS?

No idea what a Epns spoon is,could have been.All i know is they were big and heavy and passed down through a few generations.

Sounds like me nan's spoons that we only used for trifle at xmas. Electro Plated Nickel Silver. We've still got her mixing bowl and trifle dish that they brought over from Kerry in the 1910's/1920's.

The orange Trophy 5, i can still hear the ringing noise when you saved it with your cold hands. Left them stinging for ages.

And the hypnotic smell of a whole row of them high up on a shelf in the corner shop in the Summer when everyone had bought tennis rackets instead of playing 60 seconds all day.

Don't know the name of them, but one of those awful balls that had pimples all over them....head that on cold day and you looked like someone had kicked you in the face with a pair of astro boots.

Summer ball 2001, gorgeous Korean bird draped over me, had a great time. Although I've only ever been to one other ball, and a chubby bird struggling to keep hersefl from chundering was draped over me for that one, so it wasn't exactly a tough choice.

That's golf mate. Wrong sport.

Has to be the Mitre Delta for me

[Tee]

Hard one this, but mine has to be the Adidas Tango.

[Dhav]

Remember the crappy plastic inflated ones you used to get for 99p and after playing with them for about 20 mins in your garden they would burst on the stinging nettles.

Anyway Mitre Delta is the ball from my youth.

Known as a flyaway in my neck of the woods.

My left one. It produces a lot of stuff

Plus, my right one hurt for a while after the skateboarding accident, so... Left one it is!

PS: I voted for Adidas Tango
