thanks Maryz - I'm just like u most of my sentences start with And or But. And I'm definitely not bothered atm but tell you what when my little one gets to the stage of learning grammar I'll be buying one of those "grammar and spelling for dummies book" :)

BT Sport will have all or nearly all of the entire WTA tour this year.
We have got Sky, so I will subscribe on that. Sky also has Eurosport and that has lots of tennis, and I watch it rather than the BBC in order to avoid the toe-curling, cringe-making Inverdale and Castle.

I like Andy a lot. He is a decent guy with a good sense of humour and is not arrogant. But I also like Djokovic a lot, he is the better player in my opinion and I think he will win.

But in the past, Djokovic has had problems in long matches in extreme heat. He has had tiredness problems and I think sometimes breathing and contact lense problems. They say that Andy is very fit, but in the past I have also seen him tire quite a lot in long matches and his concentration often wanders in long matches and he drops a set unnecessarily.

So I think that Djoko will win today.

I'm mostly OK with apostrophes. I did have to have a think about where to put it when I wrote Pedants' Corner earlier though.

Welcome to the cult, painforlife. No need to apologise for supporting Djok. All are welcome here as long as you don't start slagging off the other players.

Do we get to keep the Tennis Tennis Tennis for a bit, or do you think they will be gone by tomorrow?

Inverdale said that to Lindsey Davenport, who I believe got some comments on her own appearance back in the day?

Oh FFS.

You are right, TheDoctrine.
Inverdale has shamed the nation with his comments, and poor Lindsey and McEnroe etc have to sit through his inane drivel and must wonder what type of people the BBC employ.

Bathroom is clean - made the terrible mistake of having white flooring in there, its a swine, messes up in nano-seconds. But its clean - I can pee in relative relief that I will not die from dust particles...

Davenport should have given Inverdale a good clout as soon as the words left his mouth, frankly.

McEnroe said yesterday that Bertoli was not a great athlete... Yeah, he did, I was slightly [shocked] If she is not a great athlete then who is? Did you see her yesterday morning? Somebody chucking the balls at her to whack over and over again on a court? Flippin' eck, I was hugely impressed.

Will be back at 1.55pm in full on tennis mode. I would like Andy to win so it means that whole "no British winner since 1936" schtick would disappear.

how are you doing?

Team Murray
I doubt my Tennis mad DM and DSIS have swapped from the anyone, but Murray camp.

But, with the Royal Wedding, Jubillee, and torch relay, causing our local market towns to go flag mad, I have rather patriotic DDs.

Personally I'd love a British winner because the press can then just shut up and leave tennis to us.

Also it might encorage school tennis which can't be bad.
