He he. "La armada mallorquina" (The majorcan army, the two players that played singles are from the island of Majorca) did a great job. And one of them, Rafael Nadal, is nephew of the international player that played in FC Barcelona, Miquel Angel Nadal. It feels good to be the champions
Clausius2, I want to congratulate you for your deserved award, and I forecasted a victory in this thread

So what presents have we got from our big brothers?

Quote Micheal Harding 'The Americans were great in the war. They gave us tanks and planes and supplies and babies. They were really great'.

I see. nice presents. :-p :smile: :biggrin:

Disclaimer: I hope I haven't stirred anything up but I always thought that was a funny sentence, even if not in any context. Sorry to anyone affended by it.
