Is the name Lottie Dod where the expression Well, Lottie fucking da comes from. Perhaps that should be mentioned in the article if it were true.

I'd like to know whether Lottie was ever married. That information is not in this article at all. --Susurrus 02:58, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

The article shows Lottie with the racquet in her left hand. Several other pictures on the web show her with the racquet in her right hand. Was she left-handed or is the image reversed? -- Mddonald 00:25, 2nd September 2006

[edit] Star Wars

[edit] Answers to correspondents

The expression is "la-di-da"; I have never heard the profane version. Dod was not married; I have added this information to the article. Mikedash 13:32, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] William Dod

I've just created an article on her brother William as an Olympic champion; I'm finding that Lottie's article is the most informative source on William online. Is the information about him in this article from the Pearson book? That book is somewhat scarce here, could someone with access to it double-check it and help expand the article on William? -- Jonel | Speak 03:42, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
