WHAT A GAME OF TENNIS THAT WAS

Roger Federer became one of the greatest players of all time yesterday by winning his 15th Grand Slam event.It was a classic match played in a great spirit by two nice guys and it was a shame there had to be a loser but unfortunately for Andy Roddick in the 30th game of the 5th set he dropped his serve for the first time in the match.On the Rugby fields of South Africa the Lions got a deserved win but the game was meaningless except for the Lions pride because the nasty Springboks had beaten them when it mattered.On the Horse Racing front we saw one of the great horses of our time when Sea the stars romped away with the Eclipse Stakes at Sandown Park.That about wraps up the sporting weekend,next we have the Ashes and the Open oh and Sussex got to the final of the Friends Povident which used to be either the Benson and Hedges or the Gillette Cup.A great time of the year for sports fans of which i am one as if you didnt know.
Last week we had Glastonbury Festival which featured two of my all time favourite artists with Neil Young headlining on Friday night and the boss Bruce Springsteen on Saturday night.A band i really really like that my daughter would you believe suggested i might like the Fleet Foxes were my personal favourites,i love their sound and their harmonies and the lead singer can really sing.There are probably loads and loads of other things that i should tell you about but i think i have said enough.
