Federer hoping to drop his ranking soon

First topic message reminder :

Obviously what Roger wants through the RG & Wimbledon phase will be to be immune to playing Nadal before a final.

With Rafa highly likely to recover enough points to push David Ferrer out of #4, the absolute best thing for Fed is to get down there to #3 - something that's a cast-iron certainty soon.

He can then eye the RG draw hoping to be placed with Andy Murray and have legitimate hopes of making a move in a final against Djokovic or Nadal immediately after some absurdly ridiculous marathon.


I love it when a plan comes together.

You're not very good at this.
Why on earth would the Treaty of Versailles swear at the line judge?

Because he called his wife a hooker?

"and yet don't look too good or talk too wise"

Who exactly is the wife of The Treaty of Versailles.
Sometimes you say things which simply don't make any sense Julius.

Perhaps The Treaty of Versailles isn't married. I may having been thinking of the Warsaw Pact...or a Celtic Pict...or the Public Utility Commission of Texas.

Julius you need to tell the doc to up the milligrams on your meds again.

Easy does it, or overdose it?

He's lost it.

No, it was in my other jacket.

The quiz was barely to do with tennis, you clearly haven't read it properly enough I feel.

I think that's what he spent half a page telling you, but you wouldn't have it.

BB, do you want to have a go?

If I promise to find someone willing to do your quiz, would you promise to stop talking about it IMBL ........??

I've got it! The answer was "What is the sound of one hand clapping?"
The tricky part was that the answer was itself a question. Clever.

What for? So you can spend half a page telling me something then contradict yourself on the next page? Life's confusing enough without that kind of knockabout fun.

EDIT: On the other hand, you might have been politely inviting me to take your quiz rather than to have a verbal fight, in which case I look like a right @r$e.

Good stuff JHM.

I won't need to look for another contestant now and all talk of the quiz can finally end ......

What quiz?

Actually I'm about to start my own quiz.

Full of mystery, intrigue, intellectual challenge and unique prizes, it will be entitled "Winchester Cathedral" - in which contestants have the chance to win Chester Cathedral.
