    Tennis 2016

    Seedlings should be out on Monday, but you're correct that the top four seeds should be Djokovic, Murray, Federer and Wawrinka. Think Wimbledon is the only tournament that doesn't solely use the current world rankings to determine the seeds - they weight more heavily the points awarded in grass tournaments during the last couple of years.
  2. Five of us interested in the boat from Vienna to Bratislava on the Monday.

    Lendl back with Murray - can only be a good thing! Federer played the 250 in Stuttgart this week and lost against Thiem in the semi, so not sure he's fully recovered from injury. Should be an interesting week ahead at Queen's and Halle.
  4. In my experience the new version is slower via all devices - mobile, ipad and pc. Frustratingly so via mobile! Don't really care about the quoting facility or the layout, but it's obvious that less people are using the board. Like others have said, would be interesting to see board traffic stats before and after the changeover.
  5. I had a single ticket covering: shuttle bus from Metz station to Lorraine station and then TGV from Lorraine to CDG. Like I said, it was alright in the end.
  6. The list only appeared to cover trains from Metz, couldn't see any relevant info. for Lorraine TGV station. All ended up ok, but the uncertainty of not knowing when/how I was getting home certainly spoiled the trip almost as much as the game!
  7. Bit of a shambles. Booked on the Lorraine TGV to Charles de Gaulle at 13:30 tomorrow. The info desk at Metz Ville told me that train was cancelled. Stood in the ticket office queue for half an hour to see what the options are, to be told that the original train may be on and to cone back st six, when they'll know for sure. Anyone else on that train?

    Had to switch off - far too frustrating!!! 5-2 up, yet loses the first set?!?!?!
  9. Where do you find that info.? I've been on the SNCF site and see the disruption warning, but can't get info. on specific trains / routes.

    Murray told to go home as he definitely wont be playing today. Weather looks much better tomorrow, so should be ok.

    Confirmed as no play today. Will be interesting to see what schedule they release for tomorrow and if they're playing catch up, some matches may be shifted to the outside courts.

    Possible that there will be no play today due to the weather, which should benefit Andy. Tomorrows forecast not looking too clever either, but Djokovic will be a round behind and playing catch up.

    Jamie Murray knocked out of the doubles in straight sets. Andy should be on court in an hour or so. Here's hoping for a performance similar to that of Friday, against a similar sort of player.

    Murray at his extremely frustrating worst! Wrong shot choice time and time again, but hat's off to Stepanek - no idea how he can still perform like that at 37.

    Wawrinka down 2 sets to 1. Think he may be regretting playing (and winning) the 250 in Geneva last week.

    Superb draw - could have been handpicked by Andy! He's in good form and this is certainly his best ever chance at RG.

    Great performance and a 12th Masters title Andy! Has a great chance at the French this year.
  20. Bit of a myth that the Queen Mother was Scottish. Titles mean nothing to me. She was born in England, both her parents were born in England and all four of her Grandparents were born in England. Scottish?
  21. Concluded missives in this instance is merely a binding 'option' to buy the land. Everyone can make up their own mind as to the likelihood of this 'option' being exercised...

    First set to Andy in Madrid v Nadal. He's now a match for anyone on clay - his form on the surface last year has removed any mental doubts. A crucial stage of the season with Andy defending 1000 ranking points this week and then straight to Rome next week.
  23. SNP x 2 for me (Dennis Robertson in the constituency). Compared to 2011, a very low key campaign all round and expect a record low turnout. Have a feeling the SNP will fall a couple of seats short of a majority.
  24. A really poor allocation - expected supply to meet demand for this one! I reckon all six pointers will be ok and some 5 pointers. I'm on 4 points and have no chance - the home end it is!
