I think that is a terrible attitude! Like I said - arranging a luxury vacation for Dad and family would be a cinch if Dad were "golfing Dad" instead of "tennis Dad" since there is no end of luxury golf resorts - and you don't need a partner to play golf - only a golf course. Perhaps part of the problem is that tennis is less popular than it used to be. Because people like me who used to be tennis fanatics have gotten older and switched to golf. Robyn
