Didnt you just know it?

no problem like that on Algarves courts i bet!
Mind you..dont get excited like I used to..well..the players arent are they?

Theres always hope I suppose ..that one day we might have a man champion fom these Isles
Is Roger Taylor still teaching in Algarve?
Never forget his match with the great Rod Laver!

Sorry to hear that Digger!
I believe same weather pattern thru France & North Spain too?
Whats the forecast for big match at Luz stadium this evening?
How do Portuguese players fare in rain/ bad weather conditons....will it favour England d'you think?
I may sound a bit of a traitor here..but I feel I want Portugal to win.would love to see them go thru to final
But its still anybodys isnt it?
Holland playing so well..Swedes & Danes thru....and France of course!
Been some play at Wimbledon( my old French man calls it Wimblydon )
But i just cant get 'fired up' by it as I used to
and to tell the truth..I dont know half the players now.....
