Many congratulations to Andy Murray on his success at Wimbledon. I am very interested in co-incidence. Andy Murray had his outstanding success on the 7th day of the 7th month 77 years after Fred Perry was the Wimbledon Men’s Champion. It was interesting today to hear the Prime Minister discussing the possibility of a knighthood for Murray.
A knighthood? why for heaven's sake when many who have made a real and sustained contribution to their local community or society over a significant time are give an MBE. Let's stop this adulation of celebrity.
ReplyDeleteWhy indeed? Perhaps Murray should be more than content with the millions he will be earning on top of the quite enormous prize money at Wimbledon.
ReplyDelete"Earning", Father? Paid maybe - but earning?
ReplyDeleteWell I suppose "earning" is an euphemism; never-the-less he will be a multimillionaire.
ReplyDeleteMoney talks!
