It's in the Estoril thread, John.

PS Bally's husband's name is Nino, not Nick.


 Well done, Wolf !

You get the 'Sherlock Holmes of the Day' award smile

Having a wife go through Cancer and survive, I always feel so saddened and yet amazed by those who go through this and deal with it with dignity and courage. Bally was one of those. And her husband, Nino , so is someone who deserves respect from us all.

Looking forward to this - I heard the producer talk about it on Radio the other day- sounds really interesting. It should be on iPlayer later for those not in Scotland

I read this piece today, about Severino (Nino)

He's helping this Hong Kong brother and sister pair, because they remind him very much of Bally, and her struggles.

When you look at the injuries that poor girl (Candy) has suffered......

Elena would be SO proud, I feel, to see the help that Nino and the team up there are giving

(As an aside, the girl - Candy Wei - is playing this week in the British Tour Grade 2 event in Graves)
