US OPEN: The non-highlights
The tennis has been on, today and yesterday, but I can't say I've been watching it much, being more engrossed in scrapbooking. It's not necessarily a reflection of the quality of the tennis (the match that got most of my attention was the doubles involving We-Know-Him-From-Queens Mahut) but that I didn't care who won. And now they're showing Blake vs. Haas from yesterday. I wonder if they will show Moya's match tomorrow, seeing as they were talking about it all this afternoon. It's patently obvious that the UK distribution deal has fallen in Sky Sports's favour and Eurosport is getting the scraps.
In other news, I have got the last two Swallows and Amazons/Ransomes that I didn't have: Winter Holiday and The Big Six. I've certainly read WH in the past, but it's nice to own the whole collection. And they were cheaper than I was expecting to pay, so bonus on that score as well.
