I haven't really watched much of Wimbledon this year but it seems, unsurprisingly, that Tim Henman is one step closer to achieving his boyhood dream of crashing out of the tournament a record number of times. Poor Hen Man. I think he just needs to relax a bit, forget about what his mum thinks about his haircut, take up smoking as a leisure activity and play better tennis. That's what I would tell him if I were his tennis coach.

Tim, if you are reading this (and I know that you probably are) don't worry, there's always next year- and the year after. And the year after that. In fact, your best years for crashing out of Wimbledon are probably still ahead of you.

Netscape huh? It will be something to do with the way it is interpreting the CSS. I’ll try and sort it out.

In the meantime, unless there’s a specific reason why you must use Netscape, might I humbly suggest Firefox. It is a very fast, secure and reliable browser. It’s well worth the switch.

I’ve realized that it’s possible to comment on your other posts. I just can’t see the Email Address and URL spaces because they are covered by the evil rectangle. It shows up a couple lines under the beginning of the weeds. Netscape.

Good luck on figuring it out.

I haven’t seen this evil rectangle before.

Could you tell me exactly where it shows up and when? And what browser you are using?

And what do you mean “impossible for me to comment anywhere other than here”?

I’ll make it go away if I can track it down.

What is this large grey rectangle making it impossible for me to comment anywhere other than here? It always shows up somewhere in the middle of the “weeds”. Can you make it go away?

Don’t apologize Gregor. Tim may have had a decent top ten ranking for most of his career but it’s due to him playing all the mickey mouse tournaments around the world. Whenever he’s had a sniff of a grand slam victory he’s buckled and crapped himself. His huge support and massive funding by the LTA is only because he’s the better of an embarrassingly bad Brittish bunch. Robert’s, ‘sore arse’ comment is a cheap shot at Andrew Murray who cramped after three hours of his first ever professional five set match.

Hee hee. I thought this one might get a reaction. I respect your Henman defence Robert. I know as much about tennis as I do about flying a helicopter. It was indeed a cheap shot. Who was it that lost match because of a sore arse?

Sorry Tim, I was only kidding.

Boo—very cruel, and typically British. The guy’s had a strong top-ten ranking for most of his career, owns eleven ATP titles and has regularly punched well above his weight at Wimbledon. He had a rough trot this year, but I don’t think being a four-time semi-finalist constitutes ‘crashing out’.

And at least Henman’s never lost a match because he had a sore arse.
