Having checked out the above link, I would like to declare formally that I am NOT the Princess! It takes all sorts doesn't it - just harmless fun, I suppose!

Given that the Princess lists "her" location as Spain, I feel we need to challenge Bob in Spain as to whether he has a secret alter ego! After all, we know that Henry the Janitor was, in fact, Hong Kong Phooey (betrays age), so perhaps we have a secret Princess in our midst!

I'll have you know that I look very good in pink, but I hit a single handed backhand - so that can't be me - can it ?

So Spain it is - I was wondering where our mythical leader Ultimate[fillintheblank]fan a.k.a. Sheddie had disappeared to. wink

P.S. If you haven't been posting here at least 5 years, I fear you'll have no idea who I'm referring to.

I can think of a number of words to describe him(?), but I don't think that "funny" would be one of them.

(It's my theory that pretty well all female celebrities are plagued with assorted weirdos and stalkers, and that there is an unwritten agreement in the Press not to publicise this - to try to avoid making the problem worse. Every now and then a case comes to court - for God's sake, Harriet Harman had a stalker! - when it has to be reported. In any event, I think it is fairly obvious to anyone with any common sense, that behaving online in what might be regarded as in any way deranged - however "wacky" and "edgy" and "ironic" one might think one is being - is SO not a good idea ...)

What did happen to Sheddie. I joined and he was here and getting match reports from Nigel Sears and updating the news then I blinked and he was gone...

I believe he's a freelance tennis writer these days, so he only writes if someone pays him for it wink (and good luck to him, btw - he did a great job getting this forum going) ... though actually, he has posted here intermittently, just not very often these days.
