These things happen in (2 + 1)s
1. I went to school with this guy! And it would seem he's lost none of his oddness. He was using the Blind Date story even back at school, and there were stories hanging round about why he'd had to leave his previous school at the age of 14. (I won't spell things out, but think of why a boy that age might be embarrassed after the end of a games lesson. If that's not clear, e-mail me!)
2. What the hell was going on with the scoring in Venus Williams' match last night? She's out of the tournament essentially because the umpire accidentally gave her opponent an extra point! Never heard anything like that before, but apparently the result still stands.
Bizarrity abounds. I'm intrigued to find out what no. 3 might be.

I could accept a disallowed goal as bizarre. England being knocked out, on the other hand ... isn't that just par for the course?
Yes. It's very strange that the tennis result stands and that, other than the two players, nobody else "queried" it at the time.
