Thanks afternoon crew.

Tonight's birthday drinks are for former tennis player John McEnroe. "You cannot be serious?!" I am serious, John. The self-confessed "spoiled brat from Long Island" was one of the most gifted payers to grace a tennis court, so it's a shame it's his on-court behaviour that endures in popular memory. He once said, "I can't speak for other people, but I still hate losing. When I did lose, I found it easier to yell than to cry. Guys aren't supposed to cry, are they?" If there is a lesson from his story, it's that people will remember you for your worst moments, not your best. Gulp. John turns 61 today.

Market report to follow shortly.
