Handy Andy

Happy New Year everyone.  Ok it's nearly February but one has been terribly busy.  Golly gosh I'm beginning to sound like Virginia Wade.
Well the same Virginia has had to eat her words because not too long ago she said Andy Murray was a drama queen and lacked mental strength.  Anyone who watched him beat Roger Federer saw a player with supreme fitness, mental strength and great tennis talent.  Well done Andy!
As an ex milk-boy, paper-boy, boy scout and ball-boy, I have to spring to the defence of the Swansea youth who tried to hide a football ball up his jumper. Many moons ago, I got into bother at Carnoustie Panmure's ground for kicking the ball onto the Barry Road.  My commendable action meant Carnoustie held on for victory and my subsequent life suspension from ball boy duties was unwarranted!!
I reminisce!  Back to the present and one hopes Murray will sort out the other Scottish tennis star,   Jock Ovich on Sunday morning.  Go for it Andy!
