song good-luck winning
I listen to my iPod as I walk on. If I'm winning I'll listen to the same song, that's like a good luck thing - usually The Black Eyed Peas' Let's Get It Started.
good penalty power tonight took
Tonight we took some unnecessary penalties. Our penalty kill was not good and their power play was good.
against best chances easier good match players struggling
Obviously, Ferrero's one of the best players in the world, ... My chances wouldn't have been so good against him. But Clement has been struggling a little bit. It's probably an easier match than it would have been against Ferrero.
embrace good level matches players
A lot of the players are very complimentary about each other; they embrace at the end of matches because the level of the tennis has been so good. I think that's something that tennis has got to be proud of.

Since there are a wide range of entrepreneurs fundraising at any given time, I looked at each opportunity as it has arisen and on its own merits. Then I've sat down with my financial advisers, we've looked at the numbers and gone for the businesses I believe have real potential.

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.
