Signing off now gals n guys until 2017. I wish all you tennisxiters a joyful and peaceful time, whether you’re holidaying or working, boozing or snoozing, running marathons or hiding under the duvet screaming, “Wake me up WHEN IT’S ALL OVER” whatever.
Take care dear AM. Stay safe. Thinking of Kath and OK and anyone who has suffered a loss this year, because Christmas can be such tricky time. And waving vigorously to Willow, hooray we are passed the shortest day!
And for those of you regarding 2017 with as much trepidation as me I’ll leave you with the much missed Leonard Cohen:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCS_MwkWzes
It contains the wonderful refrain, “There is a crack, a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.”
Do hope he’s right, Jalep.

December 23rd, 2016 at 7:59 am

Margot- thank you – and to Willow, AM, Okie, RZ and many other special posters Danica, J.S. BBB, VP, Jalep, Jane, Wogboy, Humble, Giles, Skeezer – and many I’ve missed.

Sending this now as Barbara is at my door – destroying my decking and lifting my roof….please do not let her take my electricity.

A bientot.

December 23rd, 2016 at 8:39 am

Im looking forward to the new season, but not so much of the trash talking that goes on, on this rotten forum at times ….

December 23rd, 2016 at 9:10 am

@AM – cool, I get an individual mention! :-)

December 23rd, 2016 at 10:59 am

To the Tennis-X posters and staff – happy holidays to you all! Here’s hoping for a fantastic 2017 season with good matches and good discussion. Let’s hope your favorites do well next year, especially if you have the same favorites as myself. :-)

Many thanks to the Tennis-X staff for continuing to run this site and providing this venue for us to connect and discuss our shared love for this sport – even if we differ on who our favorites are or who we think the GOAT is.

December 23rd, 2016 at 11:04 am

Thank-you Margot for the song. To (everyone) I hope you all continue on in life even better in 2017 than 2016. My last post on tennis-x until Brisbane. I still have business on Tenngrand to do, tho. And for AndyMira or anyone else, you can come FB ‘friend’ me… https://www.facebook.com/ratcliff02
Don’t be confused by the name, it’s me, seriously.

Before I get tucked in under my duvet (thankful for a duvet) for a long sleep until the off-season and Tennis restarts with the new season, I’m going to post an encore to what Margot posted because Only Leonard Cohen can write such an apropos Anthem and his lyrics are on the screen in this one so all can sing a long :D

December 23rd, 2016 at 12:52 pm

my favorite ever comedy, and one of my favorite ever scenes in a Christmas special of Only Fools and Horses ;-)

December 23rd, 2016 at 3:43 pm

Willow,
“Only Fools and Horses” was huge in Serbia and still is among my generation :). I don’t think there are reruns anymore but we pretty much know all the (famous) lines. I told my hubby that he reminded me of Rodney so he put Rodney’s picture as a cover picture on his FB. I then changed mine to Alexandra’s :)).

Thanks for sharing the laugh!! ;)

December 23rd, 2016 at 9:44 pm

All you lovely people,

and I really mean ALL on this site, whether we agreed or disagreed on certain topics, let me join in the well wishing.
I sincerely wish you all the best in the upcoming 2017 and all the years beyond. Much love, laugh and good health, and sure, some extra cash in your pockets ;). May all your plans come true.

Happy Holidays to everyone, whichever are the Holidays you celebrate at this time of the year.

Love,
D.

December 23rd, 2016 at 9:58 pm

Warm Holiday wishes to everyone; wishing you a healthy and happy 2017!

December 24th, 2016 at 2:27 am

December 24th, 2016 at 3:08 am

@Margot 7:99….Thanks…..it has been a rough year……
Season’s Greetings!

To all TXers……Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Seasons Greetings, and Happy New Year! I think that just about covers it. I wished Willow a Happy Winter’s Solstice to her personally on another thread…..I think! How ever you choose to celebrate, have a good one!,

December 24th, 2016 at 3:42 am

@JK…How are you so far?Okay everything?Please let us know how’re you doing if condition permitted okay?

December 24th, 2016 at 4:13 am

AndyMira

Hi there AM – hit Tennis X by mistake and saw you had posted.
Thank you for your concern – you must have been blowing hard as
Barbara whimpered and left…..but she did get one of my nephews
about 80 miles North of Glasgow), who went outside
to grab a few logs and could hardly get back in –
evidently was so soaking wet he had to change ALL the way.

However, Storm Connor is replacing Barbara – so I hear.
but mostly further North than where I live.

Stay happy – Tennis will re-start soon.

PS: I’ve been notified I’m missing security —
so may not send anything again until I’m sorted!!!

December 24th, 2016 at 12:23 pm

Hey JK…Thank God,nothing happen to you…I hope your nephew and the rest of your family are safe too..Take care of yourself in this chaotic week okay?

December 24th, 2016 at 5:46 pm

That video session was super fun. Watching a top-level player do his practice session is dream-like for a fan. He did give out bits of information on his practice. He also spoke to fans that was amazing. All this was a relief to many a Roger fan who had spent months without getting a glimpse of the great. However, as far as the knee goes, he did point out that he still “feels” his knee. Now, that does not convey a very favourable message. But, since he also has been upbeat about his knee’s progress at times, there’s room for hope. :)

Good job on this blog!

I love Fed’s interviews. He is honest and frank and knows how to handle the questions. I don’t know whether he will win another slam but it is always great to see him playing.

December 27th, 2016 at 10:08 am

He is honest….and open. Who else invites you to his work out routines? Very cool….

He also is pushing for more drug testing within Tennis……kudos to him,, and here is why:

December 27th, 2016 at 12:28 pm

He obviously loves the limelight and misses it dearly.

And some here would say Del Potro is arrogant.
