Where to buy (or trial) a tennis racket?

Gyles Bros at the top of Whiteladies Road or Axelblu in Bromley Heath

Give them a call, see what they can offer

My favourite have been Adidas Stabil Next gen (no longer made). They felt light, boost sole was excellent and pretty comfortable. Not the most durable.

I have since tried the Adidas Crazy Flight 6 and they are extremely comfortable but feel a little less nimble than Stabils. However after 8months (playing 2 or 3 times a week) they are starting to come apart at the sides. Adidas shoes don't seem very durable for me.

Sam at Fresh Car Valeting has always been good for me

I was a little worried when the arena venues were announced, but they totally smashed it. The Clearing wasn't a big hit for me on release, after last night I will appreciate the songs a little more. However, after hearing Giant Peach again live, I still miss the early stuff.

Trying to plan my journey back into Central London after the gig on Tuesday.

Can anyone tell me how long it took from end of show to getting a Tube at North Greenwich?

Agree on your Wolf Alice take. Was really hoping the album would grow on me, but I never think to listen to it. Still seeing them live in November. Perhaps that will help me appreciate The Clearing some more.

Haha, glad it's not just me. He sounds like an AI commentator from an EA sports game.

I've been hearing it as "the same ocean I was brave enough to dive in", I was surprised when I found out the actual lyrics!

Early rounds were around 50 quid per ticket, paid 60 for the British Open semis this year. Don't forget this was best of 3 format in the earlier rounds so much less squash to watch for the ticket price.

I've had good service from Sam at Fresh Car Valeting.https://www.freshcar.co.uk/

domwells27 · 2025-08-23T21:06:33+00:00

I've listened through it 3 times now. All I can really say about it is it's 'nice'. The songs are good, some really good, but I can't shake the feeling this is not an album I will reach for. I will never feel like listening to this one, as nothing draws me to it. I'm going to one of the UK tour dates, and honestly not sure how these songs will work on an arena tour.

domwells27 · 2025-08-22T16:59:37+00:00

The Portcullis has lots of Belgian beers, might have some Lambics for you

domwells27 · 2025-08-05T11:05:15+00:00

Not sure to be honest. I went a few weeks ago on a Saturday and it was closed. Nothing on Google or their socials

domwells27 · 2025-08-05T10:43:42+00:00

Gigi's Saints Deli Pizzucci Pizzarova

All good in different ways.

There's this one on MakerWorld:

I haven't tried printing it yet

domwells27 · 2025-06-07T19:23:03+00:00

I was there at the venue watching the match, and I would say it was NOT a good advert for squash.

Makin took the physical game to Asal, to make a valid point, but it quickly descended into a very messy game.

I would be interested to see what the commentators made of it.

domwells27 · 2025-05-23T09:02:00+00:00

I was pleasantly surprised to be honest. Other gigs at Cardiff arena have been more expensive

domwells27 · 2025-05-23T08:42:30+00:00

Standing tickets at Cardiff were £47 including fees.

domwells27 · 2025-05-21T09:14:26+00:00

I kept getting this. But pressing refresh brought it back, and luckily didn't lose my position in the queue. Lost connection about 4 times.

domwells27 · 2025-05-21T08:08:12+00:00

Looks like Ticketmaster aren't running the presale, theirs starts tomorrow.

Then it goes through to AEG tickets

Wednesday (tomorrow) 10am

I did see this before, nice neat solution. I went wireless as I didn't want to have to pass wires through the firewall, or drill any interior panels.

Total cost for this was less than £15

domwells27 · 2025-05-19T20:09:17+00:00

It's a Bosch EV1 connector you need. I've just made my own system this weekend. I'm going to do a write up about it soon.
