Stop Press: Wimbledon

Fresh from the BBC website http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/tennis/7907707.stm It now appears that rain will not stop play at Centre Court, Wimbledon, due to the retractable roof, as road tested at today's match. So that means that the weather should not prevent me from completing another task off my list - yipee!

Note to Graham, please do not let this put off from doing your sun dance - I look forward to seeing the pictures on Flickr
