Thank you! I disconnected unless the context regarding the name, though I'll be honest, although I played the part himself, over the years, even if it no longer constitutes the core of my physical activities, But moreover, we have the right reputation in the sport of tennis in Sweden, the more it was for yesterday, only R Soderling is well that are highly ranked Swedish, I can imagine.

Lol, it wasn't that big a deal. I mean, it was very cool, but years ago a friend and I went to the local tournament which is part of the ATP circuit (or whatever they call it now).

We were just walking around one of the courts after the match and looked up and there he was, so we got his autograph.

Was more of a Bjorn Borg fan myself, but that was earlier of course. And then I liked Becker and after that I kinda went off my tennis phase.

Well..funny story to remember .... these days it's submarines that apply ... or rather an attempt to sail .. have you got started, or are you left in September 1939

I haven't played in a while. Between work and family business and making sure the everyday necessities get taken care of, I just can't get myself psyched up for it or much of anything really. Mostly I just sit here listening to classical music which is very nice in that it gives you a lot and requires next to nothing from you except your attention. And it doesn't really care if it doesn't get that.

I have to admit that you have a rare good taste, just in my opinion .. might be because we were both born in September...

Well I'm trying to develop my "taste" in classical music but as always it's pretty much all Beethoven, all the time. My neighbors are probably getting sick of it, but at least I'm classin' up the joint a little.

Excellent .... in another "mode" You'd invite your neighbors to a music experience to glide if they think it is played, for much of the "same" music...SubSim members're known for having class

On another note: The Tour de France has started!!
Since childhood the Tour for me meant the start of the summer vacation.
Well, probably not that much cycling fans around here, but that's why this thread is a blessing

The Sky Sports team (Team Sky) are doing very well in the early stages.

How did they do in regards to the multiple crashes today? I didn't hear too much about the Sky riders today. I take it Wiggins is their front man? I'm very curious how he will do this Tour, he had some bad luck / poor choices the last Tour, but he's always one of the bigger names up there...

Personally, I'm rooting for Robert Gesink (of course), but Andy Schleck will win the Tour imo. Hands down.
