Dear MNHQ

We time honoured members on the tennis thread have a need. And I have started a thread here to ask, very nicely and politely.

Can we have our BALLS back, please ?

Tennis isn't only on for 2 weeks on the BBC y'know.

Thanking muchly.

MrsV xxxxx

It appears my tennis companions have abandoned me.

I'll just keep begging.

Yes - we need our balls!

NOW

Tennis season is just really getting going & we are being deprived & discriminated against with no balls.

Give us the ball back & we might even send you (virtual) gin!

I'm not a tennis fan but I am offering my support for your need for balls Grin

Sending good vibes

HerrenaHarridan · 26/03/2014 22:41

Also don't care about your balls bit think you should have them Smile

Mn are tight with their emoticons, they wouldn't let us keep the tardis Sad

MrsVamos · 26/03/2014 22:44

Awwww. Bless you, Mrswellyboot and HerrenaHarridan.

I do feel, overall, that there should be a much broader choice of emoticons.

Hopefully we will get our BALLS back and you should campaign to reinstate the Tardis. I would fully support you.

PLEASE.

Balls are better than Tardis!

Raahh · 26/03/2014 22:45

Please. Please. Please.

We've been ever so good. We haven't really mithered about it since the US Open.

I can pretend to be a Murray fan, if it helps? Grin

I liked the tardisSad

I know it is a little bit niche- but who uses the Pom Bear?!

And we have been yakking about balls over nets for AGES now. We are a serious quiche. And we mainly talk about men. In shorts.

Quiche
Niche

there's a rhyme there, somewhere.

I love you, MN. Thanks

As if you could pretend to be a Murray fan for more than 10 minutes, Raahh. Grin

Raahh · 26/03/2014 22:51

MrsV- nope. I lied about about the Murray bit

MrsVamos · 26/03/2014 22:51

I do. Blush

Bear

He is a sweetie. Sometimes.

We are very good.

We never disagree.

We are always kind & friendly to each other.

We don't attract tol*s

We deserve our ball back - please, pretty please?

Ok, we like the Bear more than Murray.

But you can't blame us for that, surely?

(I may not be doing the Tennis cause any good)

MrsVamos · 26/03/2014 22:54

If Pom didn't have a eyes and a nose and ears, he could be a BALL.

Can we perhaps pretend that Pom Bear is being Adam Ant, with a white stripe across his face ?
