Probably far too many joeb! At the moment I have the 3 weeks booked off from work to cover Monte Carlo, the first week of Roland Garros, and Paris Bercy. I'll also obviously be going to a couple of days at Wimbledon which is my local tournament, plus the last week-end of Basel in October. I have a few days tentatively booked for Hamburg too, although that will depend on whether David plays there or not. Oh, and I might also go to a few local Challengers and exhibitions just at week-ends in England - not sure about that yet though. Think that's enough to be going on with for now!

I'm taking my hair dryer with me in case they need help with the courts.

Wow, you really travel around the world, lol

I haven't got anything planned, but these are all options:

- ATP Challenger in Groningen
- ATP Challenger in Hilversum
- ATP Challenger in Scheveningen
- ATP Tournament of Amersfoort
- ATP and WTA Tournament of Rosmalen
- A few days of Wimbledon
- WTA Tournament of Eastbourne (blocking out Rosmalen)
- ATP Tournament of Halle

Oh and perhaps the Fed Cup final weekend (please let it be played in Belgium) and some Davis Cup matches..

US Open.

And maybe the A&P Classic WTA exhibition event if it's up and running again this year (doubtful after its two-year absense). Good players and the Beach Boys, plus it's only 20 minutes away.

I wish CooCooCachoo! If you look at it, - none of those tournaments are really that far from my home, and very quick and easy to reach from London.

Well you still have to travel a lot! Basel.. Paris.. that is expensive. I know it's all quite near each other (for me too), but I don't have the money

I admit I couldn't either when I was still at school and University - but one of the only pleasures of joining the "world of work" is that you can earn good money if you're prepared to put in the hours and work hard, so I like to "treat" myself with as many tennis trips as I can manage, - wish I could do many, many more, but my boss won't give me any more time off!

MisterQ · 03-06-2004, 05:28 PM

Ah, Rosie, I'm glad you are putting your money to good use!

Someday I'm dying to go to Roland Garros. I have been to the U.K., Germany and Austria, but never to France. I can't think of a better way to experience Paris! But like CooCoo.. I will have to save some $$$$ first.

CooCooCachoo · 03-06-2004, 05:30 PM

LOL The stats are that there are 10 replies and 2 views.. Pretty amazing

Aww MisterQ :P Well, I have some money, but not that much lol. Saving money for University next year and for my summer holiday (which may actually be a tournament in Britain

)..

Yes you must MisterQ - Paris is such a wonderful city - whether you go for history, architecture, shopping, great restaurants and nightlife - there really is something for everyone. And in my own opinion, RG is the BEST Grand Slam for atmosphere and comfort.

Hmm, well I spent a week in San Jose already and I'm driving down for almost a week at Indian Wells. I'll try to spend a week in Los Angeles this summer. I'm also hoping to come to England for Wimbly, Queens and Notts, but that's a very slim possibility. And I'll probably go to whatever Futures and Challengers are in Northern California if my schedule permits it and I'm in the mood for the drive.
