+++ Scottish Tennis Champion +++


Pictured above is six-time Wimbledon Champion Roger Federer sporting his true national colours at a young age.

Said the First Minister:

"Forget about the grumpy guy that made the semi-finals, you know, what's-his-name. Roger is a true Scottish Champion, a credit to his country and a man who is proud to support his nation at any sport - even the ones that we're crap at."

"When I were a lad, I had dreams of standing on the moon like Neil Armstrong. I even had a spacesuit with a Scottish flag on the sleeve. If I'd worked harder at it, there's no question I could have been the first Scotsman on the moon."

*Disclaimer - there is of course no truth to the statement above (apart from the picture being of Roger Federer of course). Though you can just imagine...

Jings I remember that strip. The hoop around the shorts made you look as if you were wearing a garter belt. OK for some, but purlease, with my hairy legs...

Much as it's pleasant to see a photo of the wee Federer, I'm kind of lost about the Salmond reference.

Maybe I'm just being thicker than usual, I'll go and take another pill. :)
