LMAO Daydreamer, knowing the boy's track record, I doubt he was faking it. I'm surprised though that he didn't go for the lot and throw up on court. Maybe saving that for Wimbles. If he's like this at 21, God knows what he'll be like when he's approaching 30.
I'm sure young Ernest has a bright future ahead of him from what I've seen.

Have had my first 'ladies and gentlemen ... Play is suspended'. Aww. Grass court season, you canny whack it. Read the reports on Andy's match. The crying Scotsman ... nice one. Off to get some food now and then back to the tennis. Shower has passed over.
The programme cover has a pic of a young Big Yin - the first champion of the tournament. Awww.

A thumb injury!?! Couldn't he at least have gone for something a bit more exciting!?! The Big Yin goes for dodgy fibulas and knees! It's more interesting than a thumb!
Finally got to see Nastase play on grass today. Awwwww. I'm bringing his autobiography with me tomorrow to see if I can get it signed. He didn't look well ... then again, I keep thinking about what he looked like over 30 years ago ... The freezing cold probably didn't help either. He was as blue as me.

Denise is MY fairy godmother. She got Nastase to sign his autobiography for me. I'll treasure it!
Weather is glorious today. What's it like in Queens? Should be a great couple of semis to look forward to. Semis day here today.

Off the thread, but what the hell. Agent provocateur strikes again. What a day. My fairy godmother introduced me to Pernfors. I shook the hand of the man who could use a topspin lob like no other. He was playing in the mixed doubles with Hingis today and played some lovely shots. My brain cells were dribbling out of my ears when I met him. He said he'd treasure the print of my illustration of him playing Connors. I'll treasure that comment ... and the signed print. God bless my fg and I can head to the land of nod now and sleep peacefully. Well, I could if it wasn't for the ridiculous burns I have on my arms and neck. Left the suncream in the hotel ... And I was wearing a 3/4 sleeved top today. I look as if I'm wearing 6 inch red sweatbands. I look ridiculous naked. Think I'll put a bag over my head to complete the sexy look!
And the burns hurt!
Queens was over pretty quick.

Tomorrow will be Novak-Rafa's 12th meeting (already??) -- 2nd on grass. Should be a good final tomorrow  Fed-Kohlschreiber (Halle) and Davydenko-Robredo (Warsaw) are the other two finals this week. |

Just beat Nole 7-6(6); 7-5 to become the 1st Spaniard to win a grass tournament since 1972.
Muy bien Rafaelito ;D
