    Hi Bennett, I am available Thurs and Fri afternoons and evenings to play. Also weekends are good anytime during the day if I'm in town. I live in Wallingford and usually play at 43rd and Wallingford but can go to Greenlake or the UW.

    Hi Bennett,

    Are you open to playing doubles or a variation of it? I may have other people showing up to hit so I hope it is okay with you. Let me know if it doesn't and I'll schedule playing with the other people at another time. Enjoy the rest of your day.

    Thanks for coming out and playing with us. You've got some serious skills on the court. I can learn a lot from your play. I would also like to learn how to make drinks if you care to share. I don't go to bars and prefer using liquor to create mixed drinks. I hope to play with you again sometime soon. I don't believe I have you're phone number. Just send it to me when you can. Thanks
