Still the same in the old town where we are staying. Not too bad elsewhere. Great people I agree.

Hey all,

Thanks to everyone who played this season. I'll list the winners below. If you sent via Paypal I will send back via Paypal. if you sent via bank then it's likely I don't have your details to send back, so please DM me. I will start sending out prizes on Monday.

I've decided I won't be running the leagues next season, so if anyone else wants to take up the baton please post in this thread or DM me. If I play FPL next season I will continue to run the draft leagues, I will keep the organisation of that off-thread and DM those who've played in previous seasons.

Andy Murray will be playing Djokovic if he gets through round 1 of the ATP 250 in Geneva.  Farewell tour is rigged.

Looks like Raducanu is going to qualifying for French Open.  Given the draw is tomorrow then think that 3 players need to withdraw by tomorrow as she is 3rd on alternate list still.

Looking increasingly likely that she is playing Nottingham given the ads I keep seeing are now featuring her. Assume she has a wild card guaranteed if she wants it. One year I don't get tickets too.  Looks like Ons Jabeur is there too.

Well I got that wrong.  Raducanu has pulled out of French Open qualifying.  I don't know if that means she is hoping 3 pull out of the main draw, or is just going to concentrate on grass.  FWIW Jodie Burrage is an obvious doubt and could have been talking to a Raducanu?

Miyazaki and Watson are still in qualifying, looks like Katie Swan is no longer there, so assume she has injury issues still.

Finally, Sonay Kartal has won 3 from 5 ITFs she has played this year, making a late push for a Wimbledon wildcard.  

Watson and Boulter are together in the doubles.

Thanks Dave

I managed to post a goslings pic on Twitter but when I tried to upload the same pic on here it said it was the wrong format.

 

"a very nice guy around 50ish"



Many of you will be jumping to conclusions there, but for the record, no, it was not me.

More seriously, it's SO wonderful to be on golf courses at this time of year, wildlife everywhere you look. Hope you had a good round Ralph & there are no golfing after-effects from your broken wrist last year.

Oddly enough, I saw some Egyptian goslings on Breadsall Priory on Thursday, & I attempted to take a few 'photos too. I'll try & post them later.

I was playing golf today at Wollaton Park in Nottingham with one of my regular partners and another guy who I'd not played with before, a very nice guy around 50ish and during the round we got chatting as you do and it turns out his parents live in a village near Hinckley. Not just any village though, the same village that you live in!

Do you know the Claytons?

I also saw some Egyptian goslings for the first time ever and took a couple of pics which I shall attempt to post on here shortly.
