Taki lives the High Life

Gstaad

I’ve been watching the Australian Tennis Open on the telly and boring myself to sleep. The modern game is too one-dimensional, the players too predictable. The pumping of the fist after a winner is now de rigueur, as is the tapping of the ball five, ten, in the case of Nadal 16 times before serving. And the rallies are much too long.The only relief from the utter boredom is Ana Ivanovic, probably the prettiest young woman ever to play on the circuit. She has beautiful green hooded eyes, high Slavic cheekbones and a figure which is feminine and to die for.

You said it all perfectly. Nidzovic is a siren and a very nice one. Fingers crossed that she does beat Sharapova. (Nadal unfortunately as you will know lost last night - but he was very respectful about it). And as for the ghastly Bill Clinton - again perfectly said. Let's hope his equally ghastly wife does not make it to the White House. And no - I am not a Serb. I am a New Zealander.
