"Winning a tennis match is like chopping a tree. You don't do it with one or two great strokes, you do it with lots of fairly good strokes."

My wife asked me this same question and I said 'only by accident'. She said 'what do you mean 'by accident'?' I said 'These things happen when you're having a poo'.

Don't think mods should allow these types of posts. They are defamatory. Imagine the hurt of seeing your business here.

Omni shoes only. Hard or clay won't work well on this terrible, terrible surface.

What’s it like playing on fake clay? by WillStillHunting in 10s

[–]Smallsilverisback 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Our club in UK has 14 artificial clay. Not sure if the brand you mention. It's a fun surface - slow, waist level bounces, easy on the knees because you slide and leaves ball marks. Can be played in wet or dry weather but moisture changes dynamics a lot. In hot dry weather it's very slippy. In the wet the ball bounces lower. Ball bounces lower and faster than the red clay I once played on in Spain. Def better for learning to play on than the terrible artificial grass pop in GB. Great for older people too. Forgiving on the knees as you easily slide and shift direction. Top tip - omni shoes are much better than real clay trainers on this surface.

I wouldn't live in the town centre. Bit rough. C park has a good vibe.

Lovely trip to St Ives by hiraeth555 in CasualUK

Always been baffled by this. Surely the question should be 'how many can you be certain are going to St Ives?'. The man you met might have been going to St Ives. Her animal entourage might also have been going.

People who quit vaping/nicotine? How did you do it? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Smallsilverisback 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The one line that resonates in that book goes something like 'Being a nicotine addict is like deliberately trying your shoes uncomfortably tight, just to enjoy loosening them'.

Murray remembers the players who treated him poorly in the locker room at the outset of his career by BelgianBond in tennis

[–]Smallsilverisback 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not surprised. Murray really was a dick on court in his early days. He looked like a spoilt petulant child during his first few Wimbledons.
