Title: Greetings, I'm New


Kal-El - October 19, 2007 01:44 PM (GMT)
Greetings ladies and gentlemen.

I am new to this place but from what I hear its a "TOP place to be in" with lots of friendly people.So I thought I'd give it a try.

I don't know much about tennis, though, I am a sports fan.

I hope to have as much fun here as you all do.

Welcome Laraine,

We are happy to have you on board. We talk about tennis and lots of other unearthly things on here and are a very friendly bunch.... well some of us are.... well I am..... well ok.... my pet cat is very friendly!!! :D

Gav

larainep - October 28, 2007 05:32 PM (GMT)
Thanks Gav, I see you are a fan of Boris. I thought he was a great player, and I do like his commentary style when he visits the UK for the Wimbledon tournament each year, his hairstyle is somewhat scary though... :peek:


Laraine :popcorn:

Dinky Jo - October 28, 2007 05:46 PM (GMT)
welcome to CC Laraine!

Always nice to have another Fed fan on here - you'll find there's a fair few ;) I'm a Fed fan myself - and as you might be able to tell from my sig - also a Safin fan :wub:

Look forward to chatting tennis with you, and check out the social bar if you ever fancy a bit of a general chat :ok:

larainep - October 28, 2007 06:00 PM (GMT)

Hi there hun, welcome to the board :hug:

Nice choice of players - you should be in good company here ;)

I, myself, am currently in mourning as my fave player has retired - a certain Mr Henman - but I am keeping my strength up with doses of Safin and Blake :D

Hope to catch you around the board :wave:

Hello, I'm Christine from the United States. :wave: I've been posting on another board and one of the gals there advertised this forum in her signatures. Thought I'd check it out.

trisco - November 29, 2007 10:15 PM (GMT)
hi Christine :wave:

Good to have you here :D
Just to give you a heads up, it seems a little quiet tonight but I guess the season has finished in terms of tennis but if you log on during the daytime, you should find it a lot busier and people to chat tennis with.

Welcome to the board. :ok:

hey there,

welcome to the board :) Like Trisco said, it's a bit quiet at the moment - probably due to a severe lack of tennis at the moment :( If you have any problems/questions then feel free to ask one of us "blue-ys" and we'll be happy to help :ok:

who are your fave players?

Pebs - November 29, 2007 10:46 PM (GMT)
Hey Christine, welcome to the board! :chesire:

Hope you like what you see and that we chat in amongst the many threads :)

Well, uhh, I started following tennis again in mid-2006. Aside from the Williams sisters I don't really know anybody on the tour. So far I have taking a liking to Amelie Mauresmo, Svetlana Kuznetsova, Justine Henin,and Marion Bartoli. I'm also trying to familiarize myself with the men on tour-haven't picked out a favorite yet. My mom was heavy into the sport (playing and watching) when I was little. I remember seeing McEnroe, Evert, Connors, Navratilova, Agassi, & Sampras play.

Welcome to the board Christine, we tend to be a friendly bunch on here, well, at least after the morning Janx has been imbibed :)

Have a wander through the threads and feel free to join in on Heyupp in the Deuce Bar if you want to get away from all that tennis chat ;)
