So has www.britishtennis.net finally died? I have a bookmark to it that I used to use to get here, but it seems to have disappeared into an internet graveyard for me now. Is it just me, or is it gone for good?

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...

When players win, I find myself typing "great result" or "excellent win", mainly because it seems like the right thing to say. But I don't "feel" it l...
