he said it himself after the match against Federer, so it is only a matter of time before he gets that elusive Grand Slam title - he certainly kept us on the edge of seats, and the crowds on Murray Mound, who braved the torrential downpour at Wimbledon, were proof that he has a faithful following who "believe". Just a pity that Federer is still in top form and a fantastic athlete. With the Olympics around the corner we may well see a reversal of fortunes.
So, back to more mundane matters - took the No. 37 Bus into town today - the bus was fine, company good - however - our so called City Fathers, Councillors, should be "put to the rack" for the mess the City roads are in - I would have that that enough damage was being done to the transport infrastructure by the tram works, BUT NO - the utilities seem to be able to dig up willy nilly, and in Charlotte Square the National Trust or similar body now has the road narrowed while they do works. I have the greatest of respect for the poor bus drivers who have to cope with this continual mess day in and day out.
So to summarise, if you are a motorist you have the greatest of difficulty in getting into town, delays with occasional gridlock when crossing the main parts of the City, and if you have the gall to try and park, paying extortionate meter fees, there is certainly the chance that one of the "yellow perils" will lurk nearby awaiting the opportunity to bang a parking ticket on the windscreen.
Our friend the great Pole Dancer also struck silver this week at the Dram Award Ceremony as "Best Bar Manager", well done Archie.
