Often dreams come true. (And already have in this case as a matter of fact).
We just got Ibrahimovic and Cannavaro. Damn we're gonna steamroll Real Madrid and Milan this year.

the walk took 30ish mins and i'm a relatively fast walker (including stop to read map times and getting a little lost) but i took normal route (long way) there are shortcuts on the map,

taking the tube is the same time as walking :frown:

(noooooo stupid circle line so slow and unreliable) (includes walk to paddington station)

It's ok, I reckon us sturdy men (and woman :smile:

) of the Wilsonite brethren can
brave the elements and cycle to IC in less than 10 mins whatever the weather. I'm up for it anyhow - who's with me??????

Bah, cycling, I've never liked cycling. I'll have to tough out the elements and walk instead.

I've walked from College to Wilson a few times (to play badminton) and then from Wilson back to Fisher - it's ok a few times, if I had to do it everyday I would have to cycle!

Aha, but he won three Slams. A Grand Slam is when you win all four in a year. :wink:

Wimbledon Champion Roger Federer won his third Grand Slam title in 2004 when he beat Lleyton Hewitt in the final of the Men's Singles at the US Open...

You're going to have to get used to our language when you come over here, my friend :smile:
