FYI, the freeze on my Paypal account was a random act by PayPal as part of their compliance requirements pursuant to the ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING AND COUNTER-TERRORISM FINANCING ACT 2006.

PayPal have told me that most of y'all from down under will be asked to provide IDs eventually.

I was asked about 12 months ago. I just did it as there was a rare item on eBay that I really wanted to buy.

It was actually a Scotty Cameron Putter but that was well played Phantom. Made me chuckle.

So did you provide them with your ID?

 

[strider]

Paypal is a f**kin organisation who should be more mindful of bloody security thsn most ... the dumb pricks need a better means of providing id than fu kin emails

 

[Gary Gutful]

Yeah. Cockprints all the way...

Cum analysis.

The merkin partnering Hewitt in the doubles must be related to Luke Kelly.

Is hewitt still playing? I thought he was just coach now

 

[Gronk]

He's playing cos otherwise they'd have two Luke Kellys on court.

He decided to play when Kyrios was ruled out.

Have to cancel my European holiday and go to Pittsburgh, PA for work. I'll be there for 7'weeks from mid May. Anyone been ? Apparently it's only 50 min by plane to New York and a 4 hr drive to Niagra Falls. City looks gentrified from its old steel city days. Planning to go to a baseball game and do plenty of short trips over the weekend with the family.

I'm a sook, I can't do this without them.

 

[Gary Gutful]

I spent an evening there when the wife and I did a US road trip. I don't remember it being particularly special.

There was a craft beer bar near where we stayed and I had a Southern Tier 2 x Milk Stout. I normally remember most places by the beer.

As someone who was in New York in Jan, I'm a massive fan.

Lucky you to to be 90ish mins from NYC, Washington DC, Toronto, Montreal and Chicago.

...and the Amish are down the road. You can watch them pull out their smart phones when they think nobody's looking.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Hang on, I think smart phones are OK as long as they are powered by gas.

Kyrgios pulled out of Australia's Davis Cup match up with the United States citing illness - a diagnosis Tomic appeared to question late in the second set of his match against Isner on Sunday.

Tomic was losing a set to love and 5-4 down in the second when television microphones appeared to catch him muttering in frustration during a sit down with team captain Lleyton Hewitt.

"Nick's sitting down in Canberra. Bullshit he's sick," Tomic appeared to say, adding "that's twice he's done it".
