Meg, really thought Federer was going to come through but it's great to watch such drama.

Me too - but I also wondered if Andy could ever play at that level for that duration again, and I seriously doubt it.

Absolutely gripping men’s final - well done Novak.

Spoke to the Champion Shell again today and we’ll have lentil soup and bread on Wednesday night - the owner will be on his own so won’t be able to produce anything more substantial than that - the soup will be suitable for vegetarians though. There is a chip shop close by if you feel you’re wasting ...

Hello all, I've just joined the Forum. Stewart Lawson, my older sister Sandra (White) is in NZ. I was subjected to Miss Christie in about 1954/5.

Condolences to her family Hughie - what a wonderful and full life she lived.

Well, two weeks today sees our reunion celebrations - hope the weather is as kind as it is today. Iain has very kindly linked a map with the meeting point for our walk around the old ICI site. Meeting in the car park at 4pm - at the following point: http://stevenstonconservation.org/LNR/forumphotos/...

8 for me - woohoo!!

Brian, I’ve also done this in the oven at a low heat for 3 hours - although a lot less stock - just an oven “pot roast” really. My mum used to boil it and make soup - cutting up the meat when cold and having it with Ayrshires and cabbage - starving now

Me too Netta - although use it more in the winter - actually sunny today and temp 21 - summer’s eventually arrived for a couple of days

Morag, I still have not got round to cooking brisket. I have watched some you tube videos of cooks roasting big pieces about 15 kilo a go on the grills in Texas. It comes out all black on the outside as it has been rubbed with spices ? it looks Gorgeous :D I cant remember ever cooking it before hav...

Wow - watched the singles with Lopez and then the doubles with him and Andy. Don’t know how they feel but I’M SHATTERED!!!!

Great result for both - but really chuffed for Andy.
