Stories are all works of fiction. Names, characters, place and events are the product of the author's imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, events and places is totally coincidental Sitting there patiently in our sponsor's house, I tried to convince the man's nephew to at least give me a hint about what the big man had in mind, but Jackie only smiled and shook his head. "Wait, he will be here any minute", was all I could get out of him. I was starting to get a bit fidgety at the suspense, it was beginning to take it's toll on me and I was on the verge of making an excuse, so I could make a fast getaway when the man walked in. He was a handsome man, well over six feet tall with an athletic build. Probably in his mid thirties, he had on just a tee shirt,  jeans and slippers.

Another British expectation was met yesterday as the town of Dunblane in Scotland celebrated Andy Murray's US open grand slam win. One more sporting achievement to crown those of London 2012 where Murray took the tennis gold medal, for team GB. The Olympic gold medal was probably the spur Andy needed to help him get to the final of the US open. The final went to five sets, but Andy did it, he won and today the smile returned one more time to British faces. The last time a British man achieved this level of success, was Fred Perry, 75 years ago. Well done, Andy!
