This isn’t a cable/Ethernet thread!
Don’t forget short trousers didn’t make an appearance at Wimbledon until between the wars. Bet that was down to Johnny Foreigner and his louche ways.

Before that it was all people from Surrey which had no end of people with an elegant cover drive but not many who could bowl fast.
