Bagels anyone.

This was not one of our better weeks. Firstly it was absolutely beautiful out today. Secondly we had to go all the way to Manchester to play indoors. And third we got the snot beat out of us.

Manchester brought out their a-team members for a little warm up before their season. On court one Dan and Bob lost a close one 6-2,6-0. It looked like it might go Dan and Bob's way until Dan hit a perfect volley in the first game. Which caught the attention of Nick Bolletari who complemented Dan on his fine volley. After Dan shook his hand and had a brief discussion He didn't put another ball in the court.

On court two Courtney and Paul almost pulled out a win. Taking the first set in a tie break they lost the second set and were tied in the third when they ran out of time. Losing by one game..(6-7,6-4,2-2). ON Three Todd and Tony lost in straights 6-4,6-4 letting a winnable match get away from them. And way over on 4 Dean and Mickey finished 3 identical sets to lose a huge hitting match 6-2,2-6,6-2

Court 5 saw the Team of no-one and no-body lose 0 and 0

Hopefully next week we can win a match.. arrrgggghhhh
