Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Andrew Nicholas Castle is an English retired tennis professional, former British No. 1, and now television presenter. His mother, Lavinia Pollock, was adopted shortly after her birth. She married fishmonger Frank Castle in April 1953. The couple had five children: James; Richard; David; Fiona; and Andrew, who was born in 1963. Castle's father was a master fishmonger who ran the fishmongers in Westerham, Kent, where his customers included the lady of nearby Chartwell House, Winston Churchill's wife Clementine. He went on to own shops in North Cheam; Norbury; Stoneleigh, Surrey; and in Taunton, Somerset. At the age of nine, Andrew was asked by a friend to come and play tennis: "I can remember every detail about the day, from the feel of the ball to how it sounded when coming off the net. I insisted we played for eight hours non-stop." His parents supportedhim, but ran out of money, and his father was declared bankrupt, so both of them became taxi drivers
