But as long as the wedding went off well :) :) :)

What a wonderful moment

NB I just received a text last night from Ryan Air saying: 'so sorry to tell you we have cancelled your flight'

Cheers, Ryan Air - appreciate it - 'for commercial reasons' it said - what? not making enough money?

Do you want to re-arrange your flight? No, thanks, Mr. O'Leary, I'll go and book another one and you can just give me a refund (and thankfully there were other cheap-ish options) But irritating !!!!!


We flying this weekend and its with Jet2. They probably dont operate from your local airport (just Stansted near London I think) but they are , IMO, the best airline in that low cost market but a country mile. We arent doing it, just flights, but they also have a superb holidays operation as well as the flights side. Way, way, way better than RyanAir or Easy Jet

 Do - definitely worth it. They are equal in size to EasyJet now, UKs biggest holiday company as well after they took most of Thomas Cook slots after their demise. Largely operate out of Leeds and Manchester and most other northern and Scottish airports. largely go to med, most major European cities. and tend to be main airports as opposed to the sorts of places Ryanair stick people in!

netted for themselves some useful experience, points and money.

M25 Hong Kong                                                Aidan

M15 Austria                                                      Anton

       Four players made it through to the second round of singles at the 2024 US Open-Jack, Dan, Harriet and Katie. Jack and Harriet

were dominant in their first round matches whilst Katie and Dan struggled but both came through, Dan endured over five hours of torrid tennis.

 

Harriet and Katie did not go any further but Jack rolled into the third round and we await the result of Dan's match.

                                  So far we have 10 doubles pairs through to the second round. Joe and Rajeev play after Dan's match.  

 

          We have no-one in the Junior Qualifying therefore the line up for Junior US Open 2024 includes Oliver Bonding, Charlie Robertson,

Victor Frydrych, Ben Gusic Wan, Hannah Klugman, Mimi Xu and Mika Stojsavljevic.

Good luck to all smile
