Murray victorious

Hurrah! Settled down in some trepidation to watch Wee Scot, (well not wee exactly), play against French person whose name I cannot recall, or spell. After shaky start, losing first set, Murray caught fire and won splendidly! It is indeed unfortunate that his next encounter is with Raffa Nadel, so we must all send Positive Vibes to Wimbledon. Federer beaten in Shock Result. Has been a very interesting Wimbledon, with many Major Upsets. Love comment made by commentator on Federer match as camera homed in on Roger's wife Merke. 'Last year she was expecting twins, this year she's having kittens'. Sad to see him lose, he looked very upset. The ladies semi-final not so exciting, but the match between The Serene One and tall Check, (I know, I know), proved to be very enjoyable and quite tense. The Serene One was victorious as expected, and will doubtless sail onwards to claim the title again.

Weather has taken turn for worse after days of glorious sunshine, but need rain to water many potted shrubs in yard and save me doing it with extremely small watering can.

Have been looking at website for village where I lived for 40 years. Felt slight pang.

Am going Down South next week to see daughters and grandchildren (over from France). Back much better apart from occasional twinge when move too quickly. Two is 70 in August, (ye Gods and little fishes). Slippers with pom poms I think. And tartan rug. And clothes peg to pin on nose at night to stifle nocturnal vocalisations. Was making noise like impatient horse last night. And snortling.
