How long can it last?

So 2 British girls are through to the 3rd round of the Aussie Open and Robson made it dizzyingly exciting with her 11-9 win in the 3rd set last night. Not that I knew, I’d already gone to bed. I’m useless. I can cope with staying up/getting up at silly hours to watch sport that’s taking place on the other side of the world, but it’s only in Melbourne. Why start so late? (Telly schedules, sponsors, ads etc etc I guess, what about the sport, the players and the spectators?!) Anyway good on them both, The Sun’s having a great time back home talking it up including the revelation that Robson just wanted to go to sleep after the match. I feel bad that most of the Brits in Oz probably already had… Promise to stay up later if you get into the quarters!

In other news, Monfils has hypnotising arms, scuplted from marble perhaps? All set off by a bit of fluoro. So on trend. Shame about the double faults, but got there in the end. Oh and Federa was sporting some pink laces.
