Rafa pics from Wimbledon

Haven't time to blog at the moment but I was lucky enough to see Rafa open on Centre Court on Monday against Michael Russell, will try and do a proper blog post over the weekend, but here's a few pics I took.

Some more Pics from Queen

Queens 2011

Spent 3 days at Queens last week in London had an amazing few days.Went to watch Rafa Nadal and certainly wasn't disappointed.

It was wonderful to welcome the French Open champion to my country. Just thought I'd share a few of my pics from the tournament.Just got a new camera and weren't too sure how the pics would turn out, but I figured once I get to grips with it, it'll be fine.

French Open all wrapped up

Had been meaning to blog about the French Open over the last two weeks but as usual the time fairy was stingy.
Well you probably know by now Rafa Nadal lifted his 6th Roland Garros title equalling Bjorn Borgs French open haul.This is title number 10 for Rafa.

Rafa had a tough two weeks at times he struggled with his form, his confidence and didn't look his old self on the clay where he normally has been so dominant but like all true champions he got better with each match and by the time the quarter finals had arrived he was playing more like his old self.

After a four set match against Roger Federer Rafa was crowned French Open Champion 2011, well deserved I think.

Meet Luis Suarez

Having recently lost my last cat Bifford I felt emotionally very raw and didn't feel ready for a new cat, however they do say you don't choose a cat they choose you. Emotionally I may not have been ready but this little boy was, his mom abandoned him and two others at just 6 weeks old.

My mum had fostered them and casually suggested I have a peek, fatal and last night I brought home Luis Suarez and we are getting on well together.

Still feel a bit guilty like I am trying to replace Biff, hopefully this feeling will pass. Meet Luis Suarez.

I have a shutter thing going on

After my recent trip to France and Provence I have this shutter thing going on, just love the coloured shutters you see on windows in and around Provence,one day I'll have some of my own but what colour do I paint them?

French Open

I love this time of year in the Tennis Calendar at last we have the greatest clay tournament of the year, the only slam to be played on clay. Haven't had much time to blog lately been doing lots of extra shifts so I can take a bit of time off work to actually watch the Tennis.

Also in two weeks I'm heading off to London to Queens to hopefully watch Rafa warm up for Wimbledon on grass, then its off to Wimbledon it really is a hectic time of year for tennis, I'm only watching and I feel exhausted so I can only imagine how the players must feel.

I'm actually attempting to camp this year for the first time so I'm getting excited buying tents and everything.

So loving these pics coming from the French Open of Rafa man he looks so good in blue, the shade makes me think of France,Provence and the sky in Summer.
