Hello All.
I’ve been fascinated by this site since I discovered it by accident a few months ago. It seems that there is quite a family here.
I’m Stella, born in N Ireland. moved to Kent , England when I was 12. i’ve alwaysbeen a tennis fan — learnt to play by hitting against the garage door. volleys were too dangerous so I am a baseliner mostly. I’ve adored the fortnight of wimbledon for as long as I can remember. As a kid I always rooted for Billie jean.
After university my husband and I decided to live in Canada for a few years, and do a bit of travelling. Well, 33 years later we are still here, and now are canadian citizens.
i play tennis every chance i get, social stuff, leagues, tournaments — am thinking that I should play seniors stuff soon but am not ready really to admit it yet.
I love playing and watching tennis and reading about it. i go to tournaments whenever I can, Wimbledon, Eastbourne, US Open, Family circle, Indian Wells, montreal.
My fav of all time was Edberg — sad day in our household when he hung up the racquet. Also love Fed, Gonzales, Simon, Jankovic, Ivanovic, lindsay, Tipsy, Mauresmo, Justine, Kim,

got cut off before I finished —- hate to watch either williams, Shriekopova, roddick, Agassi and am really not too fond of Nadal.
Fav hobbies other than tennis are gardening, crafts, reading.
love English TV that we sometimes get in Canada eg Mr Bean, Blackadder, Porridge, Two Ronnies, old stuff like Morecambe and Wise, . I like quizzes such as Eggheads.
Was a travel agent but have just retired so am enjoying planning trips for myself at last.
Favourite places are S Carolina (Hilton Head and Charleston) Cook Islands, Switzerland, Greece and Canada.
thats about it. i’ll keep enjoying this site and will like it even more if there are ever any Edberg photos

Greetings to you Stella san.
ReplyDeleteStella you have this great name which is one of the renowned movie lines of all times.
ReplyDeleteHoping you've seen "A Streetcar named Desire" :)
Hi Chieko and Xeres.
ReplyDeleteGreetings to you both.
no I've never seen the movie, maybe I've had the "Stella" comment so often I've been put off the movie.
Are either of you players or just fans of the pro game?
