Rob, Rambling - A lot of things interest me...

GPOYW - The freshly groomed edition.

I really do prefer myself with a beard of some sort. This time round it’s a goatee with a kind of chinstrap thing going on as well.

In theory, it was a masked ball, although they didn’t last too long once the wine started flowing. The girlfriend’s mask comes from Venice, whereas I got mine from Angels. I didn’t realise at the time, but it sort of looks like Russell Crowe’s mask from Gladiator.

Me, on Saturday night at a ball for Vimba, a charity for Zimbabwean children that is run by a number of my friends. It was a really great evening, and raised a lot of money for the charity, which I can highly recommend.

I’ve no idea what I was doing in this photo, but I love it. Forgive me this moment of vanity.

This little one isn’t mine, I hasten to make clear. She belongs to two of of my friends whose house we stopped off at yesterday on the way to a few pubs. The last time I saw her she was only a few weeks old, and now she’s bouncy and does more than sleep and eat.

Please don’t say to the girlfriend that a baby suits me…

Black/Hantuchova v Uhlirova/Kondratieva

Black/Hantuchova v Uhlirova/Kondratieva

What with it being a nice day and all, I figured that I’d best get my ass down to Wimbledon to see some tennis this evening. Thankfully there wasn’t any queue, and we were able to get straight in.

One brief stop at a bar for some Pimms, and then we were off to Court 5 to watch Petzschner v Kubot. I can’t say that I’d heard of them before, but it was a good match until Petzschner rather ran away with it in the final set. We also managed to catch some doubles, including my favourite: Daniela Hantuchova.

I’d not been to Wimbledon before, despite living in the area for a few years, and I have to say that it was a fantastic experience. Just being that close to the action was incredible, and seeing the tennis from a different angle really emphasises how low the ball is to the ground when the players are hitting it.

I might have to go back again tomorrow…

The girlfriend and I at the wedding.

And yes, I had to answer mumble my way through avoiding answering the question of when we’re getting married umpteen times. Sigh…
