Rafa's on his way to Montreal ...



In his trusty suede loafers, with Maymo buy his side and a mountain of luggage to check in ... Rafa's on his way to North America!!!

Getting ready to go to the hardcourts ...



Rafa leaves for Canada tomorrow ... and confirms he's playing Cincy.

Rafa's daily dose ...

"Thanks to my friends from Inter Manacor. And good luck for this season!"

Diddums ...

Lol. Srdjan Djokovic has been shouting his mouth off ...
“Rafael Nadal was Novak’s best friend while he was winning. When things changed, they were no longer friends. This is not sport. This is what Novak has in him, and they [Nadal and Federer] don’t have.”
“Federer is perhaps still the best tennis player in history, but as a man he’s the opposite. He attacked Novak at the Davis Cup in Geneva, he realized that he was his successor and was trying to discredit him in every way. Novak’s success is an amazing thing and something that one can not understand.”
Tool.

And classless ...

And bitter ...

And deluded ...

But it's what we've come to expect from that family.

And Rafa's response ...


“If he wants to know how I get along with Nole, he should better ask his son.” 
“My relationship with him [Novak] has always been very good and it still is.” 
“I’ve lost lots of matches against him and vice-versa, but we’ve never had a problem.” 
“People are entitled to their opinions. It’s not my place to respond to anyone, especially without having heard or read these comments.”
The divide in manners and behaviour speaks for itself ...

Rafa's daily dose ...

"Some work on the water to beat the heat!"

Sailing into the sunset ...


Rafa and Xisca (in a very pretty dress, I have to say ...) off on yet another boat trip 3 days ago. Last chance for a bon voyage maybe before Rafa leaves for Canada.

Geeky, techy stuff ...


Have we or have not enjoyed the fun of Rafa's holiday pics this week?  And long may it continue, and long may I be able to bring it to you.

The thing is, I'm a complete technophobe, and I've no idea how I've managed to do a blog for this long anyway.  But I'm facing a little problem.  Whilst I use Google's Blogger to do this little project, I've always posted it under my own domain name of wooffiesrafaramblings.com for which I have to pay a little fee each year.  But the trouble is, I've received an email to say that the debit details that are automatically used to take payment for this domain name have expired, and so I need to amend them on the Admin. page.

And herein lies my issue.

I click on the link the email provided to take me to the Admin. page, I'm required to log on, so I input my Google user name and password and ... nada.  I'm taken to a page stating "invalid request".  Now I know my user name and password are correct, and input correctly, cos I'm using them now ... but I simply cannot work out how to get to the Admin. page.  :(  Each time I get the "invalid request" page.  I've gone through the "trouble shooting" things to try and resolve it, but nothing equates to the issue I'm having.  I mean ... why can't I just send someone an email!!  GAAH!!

So readers, I'm getting quite concerned that wooffiesrafaramblings.com is going to disappear.  :(((  Now I seriously hope that my blog doesn't disappear altogether with it, but I'm assuming that it just resorts back to the Blogger url so you should be able to access it via ...

wooffiesrafaramblings.blogspot.com

I'm letting you know in case we lose each other.  *wails* *cries*  Why does everything have to be so difficult and why can't I understand it ??!!!???  

Anyhow, I'll keep on trying to sort this domain name thingy out because I want to keep my .com but if in the meantime you can't access this blog that way, try the url I've listed above.

I thank you.  :)))

Shower time!!


This holiday just gets better and better ... !!!
