By no means Cashy -it was a fantastic win against a great player.

3 sets to 1 is not "skin of the teeth"! Mentally showed great strength - he had lost the last time the two of them met and although seeded 7 at Wimbledon Ferrer is No 5 in the world.

I am just coming back down to earth again - some fantastic tennis was played by both.

48 hrs to the semi-finals. Should be two great matches.

Just before the last point -husband, who hates Murray said :"Mangio un gatto (Pardon my Italian!) which is the equivalent to = I'll eat my hat (although in Italian they say cat!) If he is a true champion at this point he'll go out on an ace like Lendl used to. If he does he'll win Wimbedon this year!"

He did just that - fingers crossed! Though I can't decide which of my cats to sacrifice!

C'mon Andy!: :
