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.

      Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

      I wouldn't be going all the way to Dobbies  just to take flowerpots! 😀 It's a very good garden centre with a wide range of well kept  plants and helpful staff, at least it was on the only occasion I've visited it, last year!

      Council tax

      By Jules-and-Boo · Posted

      Why do Councils need more funding? What are they spending our money on, how efficiently are they running? are they performing an adequate service as is? Are they viewing the public with contempt, that we will continually foot larger bills to cover all and any costs? Do our counsellors do their best, for us? why are they adding this on to the residents, on top of tax already paid? Council tax is not insubstantial. The service provided is not great. I do not believe they use our money effectively.  Our CT Bill is £50 a week.

      Council tax

      By Spartacus · Posted

      It is looking like we will.get an increase of 4.99% by Southwark plus the additional increase of £20.13 by the GLA  https://opencouncil.network/meetings/96736 Whilst there are compelling reasons that councils need more funding, it still is a painful increase whilst we are still in the cost of living crisis, unemployment is rising and other factors.
