    Hey all, was just wondering who is coming to AE2008? Thought it might be a good idea to meet up and then maybe post some pics to make all the other members jealous (especially the ones who couldn't come)! Haha

    I will probably drive up leisurely on Friday night but won't be watching the QF. I might even try and book a court to see if we can have a few games on Saturday morning. Anyone up for any of this?

    I would definitely be interestedin playing saturday morning if you could get a court. I have a friend who'snot that good that would probably like to play as well he's not that good but it's all for fun and I don;t know the standard of any of you guys but I'm sure we'd enjoy it. Please let me know!

    I'll have to be sure of numbers first but it's only a suggestion initially. if enough people are interested I'll book a court or two. I'll keep you posted.

    Hey Yannie, maybe you should come along and take the pics yourself!(only joking, I know you can't make it this year)

    I can do most of the pics you are asking for but the players....that's a little more tricky. I need some inside help to get me in there, I've tried calling Alvin but he's never picked up or returned calls....:(

    But 1st, our Hau-ge must recover from his viral-spreading condition, otherwise players might not be able to compete in the Thomas/Uber Cup Finals .... :eek::eek::D

    Hau-ge, bring a blackberry along, and takeover the live commentary of the proceedings.

    Yeah, I know Jason, Jaclyn & Messina are all going. Jason is hitching a lift with me (I've got my 200sx for the weekend,I can't wait! 280bhp of power and I've only just had a manual gearbox put in!! http://dxtperformance.co.uk I will post some photos afterwards).
    I heard that this might be Elwin's last trip to AE cos he's going home...

    So how shall we arrange this meet up? I didn't really think too much about it before I started this thread. If people could PM with name and phone numbers so I can book a court that would be a start I suppose. How does saturday morning 10am sound? If you have other dates/time please suggest!
