Good morning/evening, Bearsy. Good to see you and my commiserations on Sam Stosur’s exit from Wimbledon as well as Hewitt’s. No Aussies in the second week. And didn’t England beat your lot yesterday at some game involving leather and willow? Mark Webber always calls Australia “the greatest sporting nation in the world” but it looks like you’re having a wobble. And Scotland beat you at rugby!
You’re absolutely right, Sheona. I felt especially sorry for Sam – she’s much better than that when the gremlins don’t get to her.
Our cricket was pathetic yesterday – and I don’t care about the rugger! 😆
What a terrible name to call your mutt. Shang-a-Lang would have been better.
You were fast off the blocks there, Bearsy! What about a little ditty too? 🙂
