STICKY:
Meeting up at tennis events.
(Preview)
Hi All, I'm starting a new thread to see if people can/want to meetup with others on the board at tournaments. A few of us went to Shrewsbury this week, but didn't get together, and from my perspective, it would have been nice to have done so and said thanks to Jules for her updates. I'm hoping to go to Wrexh...

In light of the recent issues regarding offensive posts and personal attacks I have suggested to Sheddie that we need a very simple but clear code of conduct. I hope to PM all the mods for feedback and then we will post something here. We want to give people as much freedom to debate, object and express b...

I wanted to say how terribly sad this news was today. Whatever happened between her and her boyfriend, for it to end in her death is a terrible and unjust tragedy. The court system is merciless and pursues people and many would agree that is right. As someone who has been through it, I know how she reac...

I have started a new thread because I wanted to put up a new vote. As Theresa May announces her "3rd way" for a customs union/agreement/alignment/arrangement, I am wondering how people's opinions have changed (if at all) over the last two years. I will leave the debating points until later, other th...

What tragic news this evening that basketball legend Kobe Bryant has been killed in a helicopter crash. He was an inspiration to so many people both within the world of basketball an beyond. He was just 41 years old and leaves a wife and 4 children. Let's not forget too that sadly 4 other people were...

Tennis clubs in Northumberland

Hi everyone, I am in the process of moving from North Lancashire where I play at a super club with 3 grass courts (yep, lucky me!!) and 2 all weather floodlit courts. I have to admit I am at the ladies 'veteran' age group and I play a lot in mixed dubs local leagues and my own club both singles and doubles. I se...

As some of you may have seen, although I am not sure if it made the UK news, the Costa Blanca has suffered its worst storms for over 100 years in the last couple of days. There has been extensive flooding and sadly loss of life in the region as well. I am currently in Brazil, which makes matters worse in a way...

So just to say, I have realised I have spent WAYYYYY too much time on here in recent weeks/months and to that extent my work has probably suffered and certainly I know I need to pull back. That isnt going to happen over Wimbledon and I plan to keep on my grass court wins lists through to the bitter end but, af...

Reality TV Shows
(Preview)
OK. So I am not really into the modern trend of Reality TV and Talent shows. Most of them make me cringe, at best. But whilst I have been over here in Brazil, I have got into X Factor USA, mainly because it is one of the only shows that is in English and subtitled rather than dubbed. The vast majority of the co...

Sitting here whilst wife and daughter browse the shops. Place is heaving, and folks seem to be groaning with bags from all sorts of top end shops. Customers largely a mix of Chinese, middle east and Europeans of various nationalities. Crazy crazy place, almost obscene I think.
