It didn't hold me for long, alas.

HAHAHAHAH! Guess you gotta be a player to appreciate thwacking that ball around. Right now, there is a love-hate relationship in my house over Roger Federer. Sadly, both the love & the hate are emanating from the same tennis fan (husband). Me, I could care less, though I do like some of the leggy scenery. Thanks forD.K.

I did my youthful stint with both tennis and rugby, but the cricket is what really grabbed me in the end. <BR/>Funny thing is that bloody technology is spoiling both tennis and cricket; all that bloody close camera work and the various Cartledgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11929350278316125588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16179347.post-72355857865516588482008-01-17T14:25:00.000+10:002008-01-17T14:25:00.000+10:00Oh, I've got to disagree with you here, Cartledge....Oh, I've got to disagree with you here, Cartledge.

I enjoy getting into some physical stuff at times, and my mind was going wild with metaphors for the things I'm seeing in the campaign so far. <BR/>Brave? I'm here in the sub tropical south Pacific.
