a new year!

Game, set and match!

Early bird start this morning. off to watch the ATP Tennis in London at the O2. Executive bus left nottingham at 7.30am, complete with breakfast rolls! what a glorious day for it. crisp, clear blue sky, winter sunshine, sometimes a little too bright!

Passed the olympic village on the way there, a bonus to see the Velodrome, olympic stadium, etc. The O2 is huge! have only been there once for a seminar.

into the hospitality suite, which was awesome. first match was doubles and then onto Murray (who i can't bear to watch tbh, as it's always a long drawn out affair!).

before the murray match, we went to the buffet, and low and behold, who was there....Boris Becker!! i was star struck!! love Boris, right from his first victory as a 17 year old all those years ago. so star struck i couldn't decide between the pollock or the chicken!

later, after some commentating duties, he came back up to talk to us, sign autographs, and have photos taken with us. a nice guy and he spent plenty of time, wasn't rushed at all.

murray match done (went the full 3 sets!), and then we set off back home. a fabulous day, great company, and great entertainment. in by 10pm and straight off to bed.
