firsts investment share
I first had money for investment just at the time of the 2008 crisis and shares have been highly volatile since then. So I do have shares in my pension but I have tended to invest in specific projects that include property and private companies that have been very well researched by my advisers.
prayer secret earth
O, let the place of secret prayer become to me the most beloved spot on earth.
pride scotland appreciate
We Scots have a fierce pride in the things we do that others can never appreciate. I am the British No. 1, but I would prefer to be the British No. 1 from Scotland every time.

My fitness trainer's English, my physio's English, some of my friends are English. I don't have a problem with English people at all.

It's always nice to get good feedback, and a bit of encouragement can go a long way.

Like most guys, I've always liked watches. I can always check the time on my phone, but having a watch is so much better.

To be honest, I think bananas are a pathetic fruit.

Sometimes you're looking to play perfect tennis but it's not going to happen all the time and you have to accept it.

A lot of athletes use sports psychologists.

Everybody always talks about the pressure of playing at Wimbledon, how tough it is, but the people watching make it so much easier to play.

For me, by far, the Olympics is the biggest sporting event in the world.
I am not anti-English, and I never was.
I am not stroppy at all.
jobs thinking giving
Tipping generally changes depending on where you are in the world. In Britain you don't always have to tip, but I always make sure I do. I have a lot of respect for waiters and waitresses - it can't be an easy job and they often don't get paid huge amounts, so I think it's important to reward them and let them know if they are giving great service.
