Could somebody tell me what GM stands for (I am assuming it's not genetically modified as it stands for in u.k!). just seen it mentioned a few times on this forum and wondered what it is?

Ooh Cin, what makes you say that? Is it stuff you've seen or just a vibe that you get? I suppose the most shy person in the world (I think he genuinely was shy when he first started to play and get attention) would eventually start to belive their own "hype" for want of a better word and also, if you've got girls going mad over you, people giving you presents and stuff all the time I think all the attention would change you. Only natural I guess. Shame as I like the fact that he is different to most of the other players on the tour.

I did talk with him several times before, but just for aking the offical questions, like the injury, the schedule, and so on. He was always nice,patient and polite. lots of fans told me that Richard is very shy, but I don't think so.Maybe sometimes, he doesnt know how to express in English.
BTW, the pics are taken by my friends, both fans and press guys.just enjoy them. you guys are always welcome.
So, BGT was he giving you the eye?? I thought his eyes were hazel, they always look brownish in photos so thanks for that. Oh on ATP website there is a little video of players party for china open. Richie is in it a couple of times, no interview though.

No, he wasn't giving me the eye. :ras: The first time I was being contradictory. I had him sign a poster that was a cheer poster for Clement/Llodra but was wearing a t-shirt cheering the Bryans. :lol: The second time was during the dead rubber between he and Blake. All the French dignitaries had left so the seats right behind the French players' box were empty. SO during the first set TB, which Richard won , I ran down and got close up to him. As he was changing ends and reaching for his towel, he looked at me.
Great pictures, thank you.
It was good to hear everyone's stories about meeting him. I would love to but haven't got the chance so far.
But then again, maybe that's for the best because i'd probably end up embarrassing myself by trying to speak french and failing!! :lol:
I get the impression puschkin that you are really clever, what langauages do you speak?
thanks for photos folks and any one else out there with stories of meeting him? If I tried to speak french to him, I reckon I'd at least make him laugh!!
Nothing wrong with that. What better start can you have? I am deeply convinced that he is much more at ease in French and I am also sure he would not laugh, maybe a slight smile, but that would be well worth it, no?
If you sound like that, even better to try and speak to him in French. :angel: No seriously, speak to him in whatever language you feel comfortable talking (Yiddish?Swedish?Mandarin?) and I'm sure it'll go fine.
That's really funny, maybe they were too young to remember it, it must have been shown in France as it took the rise out of the english, always appealing to a french audience surely?! They obviously don't watch u.k gold!! That's so nice that he wrote back. where did you find the address?
Maybe it doesn't. They say we have a very unique brand of humour, think we are alone in the fact that we do poke fun at ourselves as a nation, they are saying that's why little britain hasn't gone down so well in some parts of america? was his website rg.net?

It does look like he's got a bit of a grimace on his face. He managed to play the rest of the match and from the scoreline appeared to be O.K. so hopefully he's fine. For such a good looking guy, he can really make some ugly faces.
