Hey, Rusty!
Ah, but there you go, you see..... I have just offered you a viable alternative in the post which crossed with yours previously - scroll back to post 14441 and see!
You can watch Lexi (I know she is a favourite of yours) play golf on Saturday - you obviously have a bet on her?
And then you can watch the Highlights of the Paris DL on Sunday on the BBC!
That way you will not miss anything!
There is more athletics/ tennis info on that post, too!

Hello, Elle,
And Lexi's tournament does not finish until Sunday evening, anyway.
I've just a little bet on Lexi.
Yes, everybody likes Lexi (the US girl next door!)
Also put a little wager on Hideki Matsuyama to win the Open at Royal Birkdale, but that is several weeks away yet.

I favour Lydia Ko, and Charley Hull, of course - is she injured at the moment? She doesn't seem to be featuring much.

Chris, both Lydia and Charley are playing.
Lydia has not shown great form, nor has Charley, but they are both still young.
Brooke Henderson is playing well, and all the South Korean ladies!

Good morning, Rusty!I
It is a tad chilly this morning!
Supposedly only 12C.
I can well believe that!
I have just put the heating on for an hour!
I haven't been out with the dog as yet....I am awaiting a delivery sometime this morning, so will go out later once that has come.
The crosswords haven't arrived as yet from John...so no excuse not to get on with some household chores in the meantime!
Oh dear!

Update, Rusty!
The delivery service is more efficient than I anticipated!
I am away out now for a walk.....
Catch you later........

Good morning, Elle!
Wet and windy here!
So much so, I drove to ASDA rather than walk.
So, I think that is me home for the day!
No heating on though, but woolly cardigan is!
I hope John sends the crosswords, or...you'll need to buy a paper!

Good morning Elle and Rusty!

Warmish and close here - not a pleasant heat.

I have not been able to access the ospreys' site for a couple of
days now - how is it with you?

Rusty, have you noticed that B. Coquart has not been selected
by AG2 ? Any idea why? Has he had a bad 'mid-season' ?

Correction - Have just read that he has been selected by
Direct Energy
Are these the definite final official list? I am getting confused!

Good morning, Pigale!
I hope your back is getting better.
I get a good picture of the osprey nest but there is no sound.
They say they are not allowed to disturb the birds to fix the microphone at the nest.
As far as I know Bryan Coquard has not been selected for Le Tour by Direct Energie.
He refused to sign a new contract in May.
That may be the reason, but I do not think he gets on with Jean-Rene Bernaudeau, the directeur-sportif, anyway.
It is time France won again!
I hope Thibaut Pinot goes well.
He rode well at the Giro!
