Never unfollow nivenj1 numbers. He was on blistering form for Murrays last match. Beat Irvine Welsh comprehensively.


Still, world number 1 and 2 remain in the tourney and a few toughies enroute to the final for Murray. One game at a time.

jeez you're not wrong. he was explosive yesterday, 'pumping it up your paella coloured dung funnel'. Kinda wish I'd not tuned in for that one mind.


(HAVE to unfollow him when it's not tennis else tiresome smugfest with Caitlin 'look at MEEEEEEEEE' Moran is enough to make me want to stab myself repeatedly with a blunt knife)

TH was indeed not in same league as AM but "an average jobbing player at best"? He was a lot more than that.


Top 20 ranking for nearly a decade, and much of it in top ten. 28 ATP finals, 11 wins. 6 grand slam semis - one of them at RG which was pretty remarkable for him.


He made the absolute most of a pretty limited set of physical attributes.

I see, I only go onto Twitter for the tennis "commentary" from Niven and Welsh, dont see the other stuff.


DJKQ: Think Henman was more than a jobbing pro. 4 grand slam semis, upto 4 in world at one point I think, ?7m in winnings and several ATP tourney wins. Id call a jobbing pro somebody who is around 25-35 in world, gets into the third round of tourneys, and has a once in a lifetime game knocking out a top 5 to get to the quarters of a slam once or twice in that time. Still make a packet of $$ all the same. (The above was done from the top of my head without wiki so may be some innacuracies in the detail)


ETA: cross post with TM

    • Hi - a friend sent me this link…   The car is neither abandoned nor stolen! (Nor ever has been, so not sure why that has been suggested). It is mine, I collected it from service (and MOT as identified by some on here) on Friday, driving home it had a bit of a hissy fit and broke down! AA attended on Friday, could not recover it until this morning. Spoken to the nice people inside Westminster carpet on Friday who couldn’t have been kinder, I moved the car back from the doors of the property as best I could without blocking more parking spaces. Recovery should be here imminently. Apologies for any inconvenience.
    • That's very odd if they won't answer. Do they just say "no, we won't tell you that"? I can understand they wouldn't want you to get the bread direct from their source instead of from them, but why not just say that? If they baked it themselves, I imagine they would be only too happy to let people know.
    • Possibly one of the other local garage owners may know? Also, it's possible if the owners and staff are still in the area that they might see your post. They didn't post on here themselves (to the best of my knowledge) but they must have known that I did, as a couple of times the lady who worked in reception phoned me to ask me if I could  post in the "Lost" section when something dropped in Hansler Road had been handed in to them. Unfortunately I only have their office landline  number, which presumably disappeared when they closed. Good luck! Hopefully your service manual may turn up in an unexpected place.
    • Well, that was my initial thought too, but having re-read the thread, it seems that the car was left outside Westminster Carpets. Maybe even middle-aged Lotharios can't ignore the low, low prices in their 'Remnants, Offcuts & Roll-End Sale'.   Do you know anyone with a second generation Fiat Punto (1999-2010)? Because 5 to 1, the key will fit.  I'm out of the country, watching the cricket, just now but if you can get it down to the Catford/Sydenham borders in the next couple of hours, I've got a mate who can 'look after' it. It'll be at Tilbury docks by 6 o'clock. Have you ever driven a car with an F1 style, flappy paddle gearbox before?
