bruce coached consistent fairly hughes jim seven stayed system
I think we've stayed fairly consistent in our approach. We play the same system in Manchester. Bruce Boudreau coached there for seven years there and coached the way we like to coach up here. And now that Jim Hughes is (there), he's doing the same thing.
beginning bit break drink energy felt final hold serve start taking tired took tough
I was a little bit tired at the beginning of the final set, so I started to drink (an energy drink) and always when I drink it I start to feel a little bit sick, ... I took too much and felt like I was going to burp, then yuk! It's very tough to go and hold your serve after taking a break as long as that but I got back on track.
giving important fortunate
I'm incredibly fortunate and it's important to me to make sure that I give back where I can.
want range broads
I decided at the outset to invest in a fairly broad range of businesses, as I didn't want to get pigeonholed into one sector.
loss way succeed
I fully understand that not all of the companies will succeed and that there will be losses along the way, but this is very much the norm with early stage investment.
dog doors my-family
As soon as I walk through the door and see my family and the dogs, I feel relaxed.
team simple meals
Every week I'll be spending money on flights, accommodation, stringing and even things as simple as taxis, meals out and, of course, paying the other members of my team. I'm still very careful, though, with what I'm spending.
odds shining cost
I'll never pay above the odds for something if there's a more cost-effective alternative, so I guess that's where the saver in me shines through.
my-family family-life centre
Owning a property is great as that's my base and the centre of my family life.
dog sweet brother
I guess the closest I came was doing chores around the house to earn pocket money. My brother and I would have to do the washing up, cleaning around the house, walking my grandparents' dog, lots of things. We didn't get a huge amount but it was always enough to be able to walk down to the local shops and get some sweets.
tennis emotion
There is a fear of emotion in tennis.
winning years next
This year its just about winning the big matches because if youre going to get into the top 20 then youve got to do well at the Masters Series and the grand slams. I dont have any ranking points to defend for the first few months of the year so if I do well over the next few weeks then Ive got a chance of doing it.
men use world
The world asks, "What does a man own?"; Christ asks, "How does he use it?"
prayer humility trying
The only humility that is really ours is not that which we try to show before God in prayer, but that which we carry with us in our daily conduct..
