No that's even worse. I think the phrase you are looking for is "would have", but I am talking in the present tense.

Oh dear, that was meant to be a joke. You weren't meant to take me seriously wink.gif

smile.gif Recently I haven't much.

Still lunch breaks and "spare time" gotta be used somewhere.

Anyway I hope Murray wins the final. He's beaten Federer before I believe, but his record of 23 back to back Grand Slam semis or better is unbelieveable. If Andy's at his best it could be a great final.

As a new user I am amazed at the posts on this forum. You all seem to lose sight of the initial comment and fall into abusing other users. This one seems like 'little boys trying to get one over on the other'.

Can't you keep to the subject?
