You put it on your lap and push the string in one hole at a time, I think you can work out the rest. I actually play tennis and my racket has no strings. You'll find it's cheaper that way. Your strings never break for a start.

Daria,

Only place I know is in Lefcosia. Get ready........



Over the mountains to the rocks roundabout and turn left. Over the next roundabout (stadium) and the next one - keep watching on your left for BRT!!! When you see them you turn right at the next traffic lights, straight over the next roundabout and you will see Cangar motors on your right - keep going straight down the road.



At the bottom is yet another roundabout and across the roundabout on your right is the main bus station!!!



Take the second left turn off the roundabout and then the first road on the left - on the corner is a small sports shop - Ergun Sports!!!



In there you will get your racket strung - the lady plays for the TRNC and knows what she is on about - the man in the shop is the ladys father and they all speak good English.



Directions seem strange but they do work - honest.............

If you go South, go to 'InterSport', next to Carrefour [The Mall/Ikea/Debenhams,etc.], on the top floor - very modern, huge, sports shop - very pleasant and helpful in there - probably more choice of strings and more modern machine to calibrate EXACT tensioning.
