I was thinking of going up to Nottingham for the W35 this week but with Sonay Marni and Katy Dunne withdrawing it seems quite a weak showing from the British players.
Why would Brogan,Appleton, silva etc not want to enter this?

Although you say Wimbledon is out, Wimbledon qualifying is pretty organised now. £15 a ticket but not on sale yet.
I tend to go to Surbiton. Qualifying on Sunday is free and ground passes are probably still available for Monday to Thursday. For the Midlands, the obvious one is Ilkley but I dont how close it is to a train station. Standard at Surbiton will be below Eastbourne / Wimbledon / Nottingham but there's a lot of up and coming talent at that event and some top people - last year had Dan Evans and Andy Murray, Heather Watson and others.

If you are in the midlands(as I am), Ilkley is 2 and a half hours away. A good deal nearer are Birmingham, Shrewsbury and Nottingham. The only one I know is Birmingham, suggest taxi from main station as it's less than 2 miles.
