Visiting American needs incredibly cool tennis partner.
Hey Brighton folks 👋
I'm visiting your lovely seaside town from 05/25 to 05/30 (the correct way to write month and date).
I'm looking for some casual tennis partners while I'm in town. I'm a decent player, 3.5-4.0 or so. Not a "I played in uni and serve at 180 mph" but decent... more like "I will absolutely run for every ball and apologize way too much when I win a point" decent.
Very fun to play against, I'm told. 🤷 (nobody has ever said that)
The catch: I also need to borrow a racquet.
The airline I flew in on has apparently decided that a tennis racket is not a "personal item" but rather a luxury good requiring its own mortgage and seat assignment. So I am leaving mine at home like a coward. I promise I will treat your racquet with the love and respect it deserves, return it unscathed, and probably buy you a beer as payment (realistic outcome).
I'm happy to play anywhere... public courts, private clubs, a car park if you're into that kind of thing (jokes). Just looking for some good rallies and an excuse to not sit on the beach looking pale next to people who are also pale but somehow significantly more confident about it.
Drop a comment or DM me if you're around and want to hit some tennis balls between the 25th and 30th.
Cheers.
(I've been practicing saying that).
