    Same with Hertfordshire (unless you get a bus into St Albans), but luckily there's a decent amount of fun to be had on campus.

    He could do both!

    Great service, just as I was about to say it looked like she'd lost her composure.

    Much happier to be living closer to the town centre next year though. Means I can easily go to the pub we always go to after American Football training/matches <ok>

    Laura has a good temperament for someone so young, but nerves cost her the first set. She is fully capable of beating her opponent, but she needed to take that first set, because her opponent will only get better as she settles down.

    Well the one person I know who goes to CSM also has a job. I don't think an art degree takes up a whole lot of your time.

    Robson will lose this. Too many unforced errors.

    Kinepi was making errors in the first set..that was why it was a great shame that Laura couldn't take advantage.

    Like everything, it depends on what you study, even in Art.

    Me..? I study Bob Ross. I have happy little accidents :)

    Which reminds me, I must get out one day this week and tax the bike. She's itching to be ridden.

    Even with a loss here she's had a decent tournament. At 19 Andy Murray had only reached the 4th round in a grand slam twice and didn't reach a quarter final til he was 21. She's matched him at 19 and could easily get to a quarter final earlier than he did.

    Hopefully she wins though.

    Same mistakes she was making the last two matches, but Kanepi isn't letting her off. However there's always the risk with Kanepi that she'll self destruct and lose it for herself, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

    Ferrer appears to have pulled it back. Won the second set on a tie break, won the third 6-1 and is now 4-1 up. Similarly, Serena won the second set 6-1.
