Roddick v Federer - fantastic! Really looking forward to the match, now
-
I thought that the chap who plays Freddie (Tom Hardy) was great. I wouldn't want to turn round and find he was behind me in the queue at Sainsbury's!
-
We could have a Roddick/Federer final, then
-
Given the way Hewitt plays and the heat out there today I think he will struggle.
-
Really pleased that Roddick and Hewitt are through. Should be a good match and a shame one of them won't be going any further.

The Book Club Forum Daily Quiz Challenge! (part 2)
Ophelia replied to Kell's topic in Quiz Room / Thread Games Jokes etc
10/10 for me today but the Dark Tower questions were all guess-work on my part! Never read any of the books but the question-master obviously loves 'em! -
I quite like the look of Jo-Wilfried Tsonga this year and I hope Andy Roddick does well, too. I'd also like to see Federer beat Sampras' record but don't think he will. Not yet, anyway.
-
No Rafa at Wimbledon this year. Shame, as I would like to have seen another Nadal v Federer final.
-
I was grinning at the second part of your post - not at poor Andy Roddick injuring himself!

I hope Blake can beat Murray this afternoon but I doubt he will
-
Yes, Bryn is my favourite character in Gavin and Stacey, too. During his show he has an audience question and answer spot and someone asked him what happened on the fishing trip, as no-one seems to know. Rob doesn't know, either!
-
I wanted him to get the record, too! Really pleased that he did it. I've watched tennis for many years now and my favourite player was McEnroe but the best I've ever seen is Federer.

I must change my 'currently reading' bit as I finished it a while ago. I loved this book and will read it again, I'm sure. I'll have a look at your thread, Mac
-
I love Radio 4, too. Long may it rule the air-waves!
-
Another jealous one here. It starts tomorrow evening - with S. Fry in the chair - at six-thirty on good old Radio 4. Fab!
-
Come on Roge. Do it!
-
Managed to see Rob Brydon's stand-up show on his recent tour and loved it. I've enjoyed his TV sitcoms (Marion and Geoff etc) but hadn't 'seen him as himself before and wasn't sure what to expect. I needn't have worried. Very, very funny and talented chap, in my opinion!

The Book Club Forum Daily Quiz Challenge! (part 2)
Ophelia replied to Kell's topic in Quiz Room / Thread Games Jokes etc
I lost internet connection half-way through the quiz tonight. I did very well (for me) with the quiz but the clock was ticking while I was off-line and I think I incurred a time penalty -
I'm really disappointed that Rafa is out of the French Open but he has had a good run. I just hope that Federer can win it now.
-
Title first to get my interest and then the first sentence or two will usually persuade me whether or not to buy/borrow the book.

Have you ever cried (with laughter?)?
Ophelia replied to rmontoro's topic in General Book Discussions
Tom Sharpe's novels always make me laugh, especially 'The Throwback'. I chortled all the way through that, drawing worried glances from my fellow travellers on the train as a result! -
Hello, Beth. Welcome to the forum. I'm sure you'll love it on here
