Duuuude. It's raining incessantly at Wimbledon and you've got that are your title? Yes. Very tongue in cheek.

So Vaidisova went out. I'm actually glad I was at Graduation and missed her downfall (heard she cruised the first set) however I think that's good she's out because I reckon with the way Venus Williams is playing, she's probably going to steam roller all over Ivanovic. So I'm glad Nikki dodged that bullet though she should've won with three match points. But Ivanovic is so bubbly, and excitable and a good prospect that I can't help but like her, even if she put out the girl I wanted through. So if Ivanovic manages past Venus then well...she could very well play Henin in the final and that's some achievement.

I am so glad it's the weekend. The past week has been so tiring

I just hope Venus doesn't win. I thought it'd be nice if Henin won but...maybe this Bartoli girl can do it!

I'm not bothered Venus won as I like her a lot more than her sister.

Would've been nice for Bartoli to have won, suppose.

Anything planned this week? Or just work?

Yeah Venus is a big improvement on Serena but I still wanted someone different to win it. Same for the mens', although it was nice to see Federer get 5 in a row.

Just work for me this week. Fun. How about you?

I'm baaaaaaaaack. I had the BEST time. I have concluded that Menorca is my "special" place that I'll go back to over and over. This was my third time and it was just as breathtaking as ever. It's utterly gorgeous and has such rich culture and history, not to mention very friendly people. The whole place is utterly wonderful, particularly the old capital city of Ciutuadella which I visited, you get such a sense of old, typical Spain and it's amazing. It's just a Mediterranean island paradise. I miss my 4 star hotel already.

Glad you had such a great time, Cat! Welcome back

Tim, the Foo Fighters were great. Which other performances did you enjoy?

Thanks guys. A four star hotel with amazing views over the bay, scorching sunshine every day and a lifeguard that was the double of Cristiano Ronaldo, the perfect holiday.

I've already unpacked my case, I'm well proud of myself, must be a record.

Man. I should go to bed. 2.15am.

But I've music on and it always tempts me into staying awake a little while longer. Plus this Linkin Park song ("Shadow of the Day") is breathtakingly beautiful.

My tan is peeling already. Also, I'll need to put on a jacket when I go out, that will be a weird sensation.
