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 have long since despised Trump and his form of government but in his most recent tweet today, he is showing signs to me that he no longer mentally stable enough to remain in the position of POTUS. WARNING: This is the video of a 75 year old man being pushed to the ground by police and suffering injury, all...

Changing profile name?

Quick question - I was thinking I would like to change my profile name to something else, as mine is a mouthful. Not sure what the something else is just yet but for now, I just wondered if it was possible to do? I can see how you can edit your actual profile detail but it seems to offer up no option to change th...

General election/politics
(

Given that a few posts have popped up in various threads on the general election, I thought it deserved it's own thread on the chat section. The Tories surprisingly got in with a small majority and every other leader in parliament resigned, so it will be same as for the next 5 years. IMHO the reason why th...

Unlikely to be around much in 2024

Doubt anyone is particularly interested but I'm unlikely to be visiting the forum much in 2024 as I probably won't have the time to watch tennis. 1. I watched an unhealthy number of Jodie Burrage matches in 2023 so was already having a break towards the end of 2023. 2. My dad died unexpectedly the week b...

I have started a new thread because I wanted to put up a new vote.

I will leave the debating points until later, other th...

Very worrying news to wake up to this morning.

But overnight his attacks have taken a huge step up in level a...

But surely that is one of the biggest frauds ever? Astonishing amount of money. I dont know what the sentencing guidelines are for a fraud that large a...
