Lizzim at Davis Cup April 2012 - Braehead again!

[Lizzim]

I am in the process of updating my blog from the weekend - I will add links as I post them or you can find them via Twitter :)

The first update is not really about the tennis but I will get there eventually :)

Thanks Lizzim - looking forward to reading this as I couldn't be there. There was a very good shot of you & Rob on the TV yesterday.

[Lizzim]

Apparently there was several on Saturday - Rob's parents and brother were texting us!

[Lizzim]

Ok, onto the tennis:

I have only managed the first match so far and probably won't get anymore done tonight......sorry :(

Thanks Lizzim, great start.

Thanks Lizzim! Did anyone ever discover why Dan was saying 'Allez'?

[Lizzim]

I think he was being cheeky ;)

It's a good start - but could you edit in a couple of extra wins in for us by the end? I'm sure the authorities would accept your account...

What and then we get a tie in September that I would have to miss due to holiday plans? No can do I'm afraid....! Anyway, I'm sure losing will be character building for the team :)

Great blog! When are you going to mention the "mirror bangers", though? ;)

Wow, I must be getting old....completely forgot already! Might have to add that in later.....keep the readers in suspense :)

[Linda]

Mirror bangers? :confused:

Ross wrote on your stomach! :worship: Does Jane know?

[Lizzim]

Yep - mirror bangers.....I completely forgot to mention it so will add into the next update - may not get it done tonight though :)

Well if she didn't before she will now!

Thanks Lizzim! Did anyone ever discover why Dan was saying 'Allez'?

I heard a rumour that Julien Hoferlin (Dan's coach, but previously coach to Rochus ... and a past Belgian captain!) told Dan to do that for a laugh because it would probably wind Ollie up. :)

I did wonder if he had something to do with it but figured that Dan is a bit mischevious anyway :)

Awesome blog! Sounds like so much fun!

Thanks Lizzim! Did anyone ever discover why Dan was saying 'Allez'?

We were reliably informed it was partly so that he doesn't curse as he has a bit of mouth on him!

Entertaining blog Lizzim!

It didn't quite work, though - he still got an official warning... :doh:

Great blog Lizzim. Thanks and thanks also for the loan of your monster flag!! Me and Gill are going to get one for next year i think!!

Any volunteers to help us wave it???

[Lizzim]

Can't write anymore - I finished the blog the other night!

[hfwardhouse]

Yeh I wrote that before I read the last bit :doh: :lol:
