Monday 14th August :Day 23

The dream is over .2-6,3-6 in about an hour and twenty minutes . No complaints,just too good . But for once it felt good to compete and the fitness is there .

Quite a few of my fellow club members are still in the tournament ;good luck to you all.

Great Britain is playing against Ukraine in Davis Cup at the end of September , and whilst I am not playing well enough to get selected Mrs.F and I might well make the trip anyway .

'Regular'readers may recall my fear of flying . Well, you can imagine what I'm going through with this security scare....we're flying to New York in 10 days time . I guess I'll be popping some extra diazepam .

Goodnight , comrades .
