Andy Murray is an odd looking lad isn't he.


I like the fact he's more firey than Henman ever was, more of a McEnroe. However, I don't like the way he comes across, and not just because he said that thing about England in the last world cup. I just can't really take to him.


That said, I want a different final, so I would like to see him win.


I hope Safin keeps up his current form and wins it, would be nice.

I only saw the last bit after the short rain break, but wow! Both of them were just playing out of their skins... I did think Federer was starting to look tired, but then again, I thought Nedal would never break him after 2 games were he was 2 points up on Federer's serve!


The only shame is that there is no one who could stand with these 2, or frankly anywhere near at the moment!


Bloody well done to Laura Robson, although as Virginia Wade says, I hope the press just leave the girl alone to get one with it! I believe that this win has earnt her a wild card in to next years seniors.

Arf. The Beeb spotters were concentrating on gawky Gavin and the president of Real Madrid FC, but clearly hadn't noticed the Crown Prince and the lovely Letizia were in the house, until Nadal went over at the end of the game. Tsk.

Keef, Australian open final had neither Nadal nor Federer in it. Federer loses in New York, and he's had a Slam-free season.

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
