Hi Cap

Just got back from the tennis - great day out.

[Captain2]

You were actually there? excellent; did your favoured player win?


PS Any news to impart yet or is it still a way down the line?

[solidair123]

Thanks everyone but especially Kaya

[kayakamina]

I wanted Federer to win but Djokovic was the best player on
the day. Friends in the business world arranged tickets for me.

On the other matter - sadly it is not to be after problems.

[Captain2]

So sorry to hear that Kaya - me and my big foot :-(

[kayakamina]

You weren't to know.

See you.
