Killing two birds with one stone

 It seems as though I often hide at home in airconditioned comfort and indulge in two of interests, tennis and family history research, at the one time during late January or early February. That was the case today.

Anyone for tennis?

Working off the amazing Mothers' Day lunch prepared by our two sensational sons.

Thanks to elder son and family for hosting another fab family get together.

Tennis legend Robert Ball returns to the tennis court after a twenty year absence.

Well I never...

When I watch the Australian Open Tennis on TV I don't take much notice of the subtle advertising on the players' clothing but one little badge (that is a bit hard for old eyes to read) has always intrigued me.

I wondered how the University of Queensland was able to get several highly ranked players to promote them via these simple red and white badges.

Wandering down Powell Street in San Francisco yesterday I got my answer. The badges aren't advertising the University of Queensland . They are advertising a clothing retailer, UNIQLO.

Silly me!

Early for APIA Women's Final at Sydney Tennis Centre between Li Na and Azarenka. Looking forward to a good night of tennis.
