as a complete aside, Melilla is an interesting place in that (as I'm sure many of you know) it is attached to Morocco as opposed to being part of mainland Spain.
a number of similarities (albeit differences too) between Gibraltar, so one does feel a certain sense of hypocrisy when the Spanish try to claim Gibraltar as their own...

good luck Alex this week

Yes, thanks goldenboy, as a geographically-challenged person, had no idea about that.

And not often you see a score that had two points and didn't even get to one game:

R1: Pablo Martínez (ESP) & Alex Ward UNR lost to James Allemby & Marco Neubau (ESP) CR 2317 (1740+577) 0-30 retired

Was Alex in a hurry or something ? The sands of time ran out pretty quickly for Mr Arenas.

Mr Ward seems to be reluctant to step up to challengers, and he seems to have a lot of success at futures level.

Any reason why he didn't follow his namesake James Ward out to India?
