Alan Mackin ?, Miles MacLagan ? and Alex Bogdanovic ?.

I imagine they must be household names somewhere, so if anyone can fill me in on the details I would be pleased to expand my education.

:D :D :D

Arn't they professional chess players of some sort?

They are future millionairs. :D

They probably play some obscure minority sport.

Isn't Alan Mackin a tennis player?

Hello :D - I was wondering if you would put in an appearance ;)

They are tennis players, members of the Great Britain Davis Cup team.

Well done - 10 points to Sir K. I fact they are all tennis players - when I posted I had just found out that they are the Davis Cup squad that Great Britain have sent over to Australia to match up against Phillipousis, Woodbridge, Arthurs, and of course Lleyton Hewitt ;) .

To be fair, I just realised I had omitted their highest ranked player from the list (I was a bt to heavy on the cutting after the pasting) - a guy with the name of Arvind Parmar, who is ranked as high as 163rd. The others are Alan Mackin (332nd), Miles MacLagan (443rd) and Alex Bogdanovic (459th).

PS : In all honesty if you had asked me if I knew any of these guys, the answer would have been Arvind who?

He knows full well who they are - he's trying to bait me! And not having great success. :D

Aaaaaaaah - light goes on - light goes off - light goes on - light goes off ;) .

Well of course Aussie pride will be severely humbled if we fall over against these guys. I was expecting some "Remember Mildura" catchcries though :D . Still, you would have to think our football lads will have more chance of walking away with a victory at Upton Park in Feb, than these GB tennis guys will have next week.

Make mine a double :D
