I quite like the fact that the British pairings had been shuffled a bit, good to see Brydan in the mix.

Real solid win from the Skupskis. Much better performance than yesterday.
Klein was solid, but Lloyd was off his game.

Good stuff

The Skipskis ( Skupskis even ) are defending 173 points (80+48+45) over the next 3 weeks so it's good to have an 80 (W) or 48 (RU) in advance.

 They are of course slightly protected by having a couple of decent non counters which could enter the equation.

Ken was on good form, Neal wasn't particularly happy with his performance, but they were the more solid pair during the game.

They play Surbiton next week as they missed out at Stuttgart.

Neal and Ken weren't really bothered who they got - either tough. Raja is a clever player, Sharan swings hard.

Looks like it's going to be an early start for my 200 mile round trip on Sunday.

200 miles.  That's just a short trip around the block wink

Enjoy.  And wish the guys good luck from me.  Hope to catch up with them at Wimbledon.

It's the 50mph speed limits which are the worst part. Breakie at 7 as well. Will pass on your message.
