  1. The official ATP site provides updates, although not point-by-point. Monfils won the first set 6-2 and the second stands at 3-4. Click on updated scores
  2. Oops. I obviously got carried away singing along. Space Oddity it was then.
  3. David Bowie - Ground Control to Major Tom.
  4. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Stop.
  5. I was hiding behind the sofa on Sunday. Come on Andy! Glad I'm not watching it.
  6. Indeed. If it was cricket I'd understand, but tennis! What's the score in the deciding set?
  7. Teenage Fanclub - What You Do To Me.
  8. Ditto. This is a seriously good track.
  9. The Stranglers - Golden Brown.
  10. Velvet Underground - Femme Fatale.
  11. Divine Comedy - National Express. Great lyrics, especially "but it's hard to get by when your arse is the size of a small country."
  12. Will do. My collection, however, will probably creep up gradually.
  13. Glad I can be of service. It'll take me ages to wade through all your tracks! Jeff Buckley is fantastic.
  14. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Stop. Cheers, LJ. I forgot about this track.
  15. Velvet Underground - I'm Waiting For The Man.
  16. I watched Downfall at the cinema last night. If you like your history, it's definitely worth seeing. Hitler is brilliantly portrayed by Bruno Ganz as an abhorrent human being devoid of concern about humanity and completely out of touch with reality. According to some critics, the film panders to the tendency of Germans to see themselves as victims of Nazism rather than Germany's 'willing executioners'. If you do watch it, go see it with your eyes open to the possibility that many of the individuals, with the obvious exceptions of Hitler and Goebbels, are perhaps portrayed rather too sympathetically. Despite the above caveat, it is a gripping film and once again should make us all wonder why the German people fell under Hitler's thrall. Edited to add a score of 9/10.
