    I don't know Annette, he never went into that much detail with me. But I assume it would have been something arranged with IMG following Marion's win over Jankovic.
    
    I like one of his other vids, where he says something like, "I feel like a muppet" lol I blushed. And he stands there like a numpty and the doorman says sling yir hook mate. lol funny.

  Thanks, that video is a refreshing change from the sometimes nasty business of winning & losing tennis matches. Eastbourne & Wimbledon -- GRRRRR!!!!
  
  On Google Maps, find the Rod Laver Arena at Melbourne Park, get the Street View happening on Batman Avenue (just north of the bridge), and follow the trip northwest towards the city.

  Google maps!!!!PAH
  
  Just look for the Centre of our Universe and you'll see our lovely lady shining in white, a gentle smile on her face and endless love for Melbourne and it's people in her heart.
  
  Can't wait till she's back amongst the people she loves and the people who love to watch her play.
  
  I hope one day we'll here Marion singing "lucky to be an Australian.

  What can we get Marion for ten dollars for her 25th? A Wimbledon sandwich and black coffee costs £5:50!

    Hello Super one,
    
    I did mean to ask earlier if you had partaken of the old Wimbly favourite, the Strawberries and Cream.
    
    $10 hey...Autographed picture of Razzano perhaps???
    
    A paint brush or two to use when she's at home......start of a new career maybe.....
    
    One day I've gotta stop teasing.........It's just that I'm so good at it.
    
    Well, I guess it's no secret now that the Williams brothers have made it into what will probably be a very boring final.
    
    Come on, you don't think for a moment that there hasn't been some discussion about who's going to, or who's been aloud to win.
    
    It's sad really but that's tennis for you.
    
    Anyway Dear Super dupa I'm here in the tree house seated comfortably in one of those charleston couches you love so much.
    
    Got the Double choc coated Tim tams out and a fresh batch of lamingtons on the coffee table ready to watch the mens semis.
    
    Your probably laying back in your electric massaging recliner chair penning a few more thoughts together for further updates of the blog.
    
    How's that jam and toast coming?
    
    Oh...honey and bannanas again...
    
    Oh..... right...havn't had time to do a shop. That's too bad.
    
    I'll be thinking of you while I'm downing my fifth Tim Tam.
    
    Did I mention that the're double coated?
    
    Anyhow, I hope our Marion B is resting up for the next tournament and as always I look forward to hearing from you and all our wonderful friends who faithfully climb the rope ladder to visit.

  Honey and bananas actually.
  
  Did you see the honey pot and bear pic in the other comment thread?

  Well, I am thinking about stuff, but believe it or not, I don't blog every thought that I have. However there is a few wee things Marion said recently that can be spun into a blog post.
  
  No I don't think that Venus and Serena fix the result. In fact last years final between them was quite thrilling, although admittedly a lot of their other matches between eachother have been awkward affairs.

  Love this video, it's so relaxed and Marion looks radiant and content.
  It makes me want to visit Melbourne and take a horse and cart ride.
  It's all very romantic - don't you think?

  Audrey thank you for your comment. Yes I agree. It reminds me of a singer songwriter called Laura Nyro, who would commute every day and evening from her apartment and the studio in one of those horse and carts which parade by Central Park in New York. That was during the 8 month recording sessions for New York Tendaberry in 1969.

  I checked out Laura Nyro.
  It's nice sound and a nice mix for Marion on horse and cart.
