Sing one you know

Nadal won Wimbledon. It makes me all bubbly and happy. Congrats Rafa.

Those guards look pretty chuffed to be in the photo. I wish I were a guard at the All England Tennis Club or whatever it's called. There's a nice quote which is written on the player's tunnel in the entrance to Centre Court:

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two imposters just the same

...which sounds nice, but it makes more sense when you stick the whole poem in.

If you can keep your head when all about you 

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated, don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings 

And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! 

- Rudyard Kipling 

I'm currently playing Sparks on repeat. It's so nice, and it doesn't really develop. It's quite drifty.

Did I drive you away?

I know what you'll say,

You'll say "Oh, sing one you know."

But I promise you this,

I will always look out for you.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.
