Count - it's a small world I'm about 100 yards from there as I type.

I hope nobody has checked anything important into the hold en route to Athens .

did i miss something here? has there been a problem with baggage?

Lol maybe you can see me often standing in evening on the corner by the roundabout looking for the 272 or E3 buses to see which one comes 1st!

Baggage handling at Athens has not got the best reputation in the world, and
an extra hour waiting at the carousel when you're in a hurry doesn't do a lot for the nerves.

They seem to be running about two hours behind the times shown on the OoP, Economidis v Mahut is just into a 1st set t/b, with Becker v Mecir still to follow before Boggo's match. That probably means the Greek times shown on the OoP will be fairly accurate if you treat them as UK times, i.e. Boggo likely to start at about 7.30 pm our time.

Hardly surprising when you consider that the Chiudinelli (5)/Witten match lasted just shy of 2 hours & 12 minutes, while it took Rainer Schüttler (7) 2 hours 23 minutes & 46 seconds to subdue Berankis. wink

That young man is clearly one to watch! hmm

Those sneaky Greeks have moved the match to another court and sadly it's set point Petzsch ... and that's it, 4-6, 31 points to 32, Petzsch has taken 1/2 bps, Boggo 0/4. A great fight against a top 50 player but sadly it won't count for much unless he can turn the match around.
