Okay for all you young'uns...

Classic line from the original Aliens film..."In space no-one can hear you scream"

(A film that I still wont watch on my own unless in broad daylight...with company)

So I substituted 'space' and 'scream' with my tennis references which works well if you have ever attended a UK futures event where the umpire usually doubles the crowd watching wink.gif

In Futures tennis, no one can hear Bains scream?

By the way, congratulations on having the banner up for a day withouth Stircrazy noticing the missing apostrophe.

I do really like the general look and message of the banner, Jamie's performances well deserve being highlighted  clap.gif

I am a bit confused about the "Thailand F3 - Australia F6 and F7 - 31/35" line, since the 31/35 covers 7 tourmaments, namely Thailand F1, F2 and F3 and Australia F5, F6, F7 and F8.  The Baker's Dozen highlighted covers matches in Australia  F6, F7 and F8.

Maybe "Thailand F1 to F3, Australia F5 to F8 - 31/35"  ?


Edit :  OK, got you  doh.gif , those are the titles that he actually won  smile

But if I didn't quite get it initially, mainly because I made a link that wasn't meant, and I have been following Jamie closely, how about suggestion number 2  smile

"Champ of Thailand F3 and Australia F6 & F7, 31/35 matches won"  ?  


Oh, and PS :  before anyone else says it, and arguably more of an issue, apostrophe !!  It's "Baker's"   ( any rumour that I just went off to check that I had actually put the apostrophe in my previous posts is err fact  smile   )

Next to each other. Or in this case I suppose, one after the other.

It means 'touching' or in this case 'without a break'/'in a row' (the latter might have been a better way to put it?) and it's spelt the way you've spelt it, without the extra o the banner's got in it.

That's a brilliant banner though biggrin
