    hahaha, it depends how you look at it i suppose. many a lady has deemed ol' princey boy to be the most eligible bachelor in blighty. how far that's down to the crown and how far that's down to the man is for you to decide ...

    A wild guess, that. Been following English footie for the past 20 years so the name Birmingham pop into mind (Aston Villa, Birmingham City) whenever someone mentions the 'middle' or 'Midlands' although it's a gross generalisation...

    Newbie here in badminton

    Hi peoples who play badminton!:D

    I'm am just a beginner and starting out,I know some of the basic strokes and footwork 'cuz I've previously played tennis.I need to know what kind of racket to start out with.I was looking at some online like on www.sportsauthority.com but I don't know if they're any good or not.I asked a friend of mine and he said buy a Yonnex,but I don't wanna spend hundreds of dollars on a racket beings as I'm a beginner.I would prefer a racket that I could pick up at a store too,I don't wanna pay for shipping!:pAnyone with any good advice about which kind of racket to get????

    P.S.
    I don't know of any places in San Jose,California to play badminton at daily,so I was wondering if I should buy a net.Wikihow says that the nets you buy are bad quality.I wonder too if that's true.Again,please give help for this newbie!!!!

    His missus is not bad, really, though probably not in the category of 'fit'.

    Talking about them birds, the footballers have 'em all. I can't imagine the reason why Ashley Cole would cheat on Cheryl. Mind, she's not chopped liver by any stretch of imagination!

    And Abigail Clancy...
