The giant guy to my left was a massive ****roach, which i killed slowly, made sure it felt the pain, given i got bitten ALIVE last night....
i pulled back my sheets and mattress, somthing you should never do, and imagine the worst sight ever, where everything is moving, all sorts of bugs there i have never seen i went nuts with the spray can, all over the room.

I must have about 50 bites all over my back and arms, its a joke.

Hot hot hot again today. semi finals start at 1.30 local time, so they will be mid first set now, im off to try and find lunch....hmmmm

Those plastic lines remind me of some hideous clay courts we had in Mexborough in South Yorkshire back in the day. At least now they're decent asphalt courts, with painted lines ;)

Strikes me you're a much better player than your ranking would indicate, Fitzy.

All I can suggest is learn from your defeats. Don't beat yourself up every time you lose.
You know you're good enough. Losing a couple of sets of tennis doesn't change that fact.

Keep the faith, we are! Where's a thumbs-up smiley when you need one? :)

Hi Fitzy,
If you would like, why don't you drop me a line. I hold a little bit of sway over a certain newspaper. I haven't heard from you and would be delighted if you got in touch. Send me a note and we could exchange addresses etc.

lol thats pretty funny (i am sure scary at the time tho) i had that happen once in a hotel a few years back in portgaul. all the rooms looked similar and we had someone try and come through our window - he wasnt a burglar tho just a lost guest.

at least you can use a racquet as a weapon if needed :)

i took a video of my room today, they have changed my bed, and i wont even describe what was under there when they took it apart, i almost chucked, i wish i had my phone cable to upload it onto the internet.

shocking, just shocking. one bonus about being here is cheap dvd's ive gone out and bought a stack incase i get bored!
