I have not heard from the following regarding payment for their tickets.
JerryD
Maud & LizzyB
TinaWatt

Maud's email bounced back so I've PM'd her and the other 2 as well
and tried to resend emails to all 3.

If any of the other forum members follow them on Facebook or other media please would
contact them to say the deadline is mid-day today or they will lose their places.

Thank you.

Heard from Maud.

Understand Jerry is at the dentist and has had lots of messages so hopefully will respond when teeth sorted.
Tina has been sent lots of emails and messages. Fingers crossed.

Thanks Jerry! And Tina!

I got the tickets on Monday and haven't sent them out as I've been working 12hr days this week.

Will give some thought today whether to post them out(which won't be until Friday earliest or Saturday as I need further information from the LTA) or take to Marbella and issue there sometime on Thursday. Most AMFFer's are staying at the same apartment hotel (Princesa Playa) and or can be contacted.
I'll let you all know tomorrow night.

DAVIS CUP T-SHIRTS
+++ we will all have a Davis Cup tie shirt which I'm collecting on Thursday so will dish out on Thurs night at the Princesa Playa to anyone we find and then take the rest to the Arena on Friday for everyone else.

Please note - I've given the LTA a size breakdown based on my memories of what you all looked like when I saw you last so erm, please don't beat me up if you look 'shrunk in the wash' due to Xmas overeating or New Year diets.
