    All Scots support ABE- anyone but England. It's just the way it is,and not worth getting bothered about. He comes across as a rather shy person who has to deal with the media. The trick is to look pleased to be there in front of the cameras, but he's not a great actor, just a great tennis player.

    I agree with this. In today's world all professional athletes have to deal with media, but it's unfair to expect them all to be naturals at it. It's enough that the guy excels at tennis, who cares if he's crap at talking to the camera?

    My friend is picking me up in her new Mini Cooper and driving me to Yarmouth for a coffee on a beautiful sunny day.

    The drive from Newport to Yarmouth is one of my favourites...love the bit where you are driving next to the sea...with the sun sparkling on it. Yarmouth is such a lovely old fashioned town...like being transported back to the fifties in a Famous Five book. Having coffee in Gossips where you can watch the ferries going in and out. Also a good base for some easy walks round the coast. Heaven.

    Joe is in charge of suicide trip lol...
    It's the wife's 40th whilst we are there so it will be a special holiday, one of our agreements is no internet for 2 weeks <yikes>
    But sneakily my brother will text transfer news to me, and will be flying back the day we play Liverpool so will be sat on the plane for nearly 12 hours wondering what the bloody hell the score is.

    Van Nistelrooy?
    Van Persie?
    Suarez?

    All came to the PL from the Dutch league.

    This will be my 5th time. Love going to the States. Highly recommend going. There's something for everyone: the hustle and bustle of downtown, or there is amazing scenery, the Grand Canyon is stunning, there is a viewpoint where you can view the Canyon when the sun rises. Words can't describe that view. You have to see it with your own eyes. This picture gives you an idea:

    It's something you must see in your lifetime if possible because trust me, it's a million times better seeing it for yourself.

    America is wonderful....as long as you don't want to eat. Their food looks and sounds good, but has little flavour. Eat Italian if possible....mind you, that is good advice anywhere in the world.
