Who goes, you decide?

Even if you're not a big tennis fan you probably couldn't help getting caught up in the emotion of an amazing weekend of tennis. We have a British Wimbledon champ at last as 14 year old Laura Robson won the Junior Girls final. Ignore the fact that she is technically Australian because she was born there, she says she British so that's good enough for me!

The men's final has been described today by many a tennis expert as the best Wimbledon final ever! Nadal and Federer battled through 5 sets for nearly 5 hours. When rain stopped play for the second time I ventured down the pub to find everyone watching it and the atmosphere was electric. Nadal deserved to win and with Federer winning the title 5 times previous it only seemed fair. Tennis courts up and down the country will be booked up for weeks as tennis fever continues to take hold!

I never thought I would say this but I've seen Mamma Mia, the movie twice in a week! I was lucky enough to go to the premiere and on Saturday night I introduced a special World Screening for a lucky few who got to see the film before it's release on Thursday. As I was walking out of the auditorium after my bit there was an empty seat so I sat in it and watched the film again. It is the feel good movie of the summer and I strongly recommend you go and see it.

I love this story, Revels are selling special "eviction" packs of the sweets and you can vote to evict the coffee or orange revel from the packet! The one with the most votes will get the boot. This is a genius marketing idea, I for one will buy a few packets and have my say. Goodbye to coffee Revels for ever I hope!

See you at 1 for the show.......
