From a British perspective the last week has been quite good. The British and Irish Lions won the rugby series in Australia, Chris Froome is leading the Tour de France, the cricketers have won most sessions so far in the ashes test - although the Aussie fightback was unbelievable and gave them a slight edge, but there is some thrilling cricket to come in this test. Oh, and Andy Murray won his second major with his Wimbledon title.... speaking of tennis, Lorde has a new single out called "Tennis Court", fuck I admit - this is such a crap segue because Lorde isn't even British. But I will keep calm and carry on... Lorde had a number one hit here with "Royals" from her EP 'The Love Club' and she has now followed that up with her "Tennis Court" single. At only 16 years old and still at school, who knows what the future holds for her, but if she can learn a lot from this experience, she may have a fruitful career. She confirmed one thing for us recently (probably not that surprising). That even having a number 1 single and EP for weeks doesn't necessarily transfer to a lot of funds. In a recent interview she stated that her bank balance was a single figure and that her eftpos card was declined when buying a subway sandwich. Sign of the digital age or bad management? I don't know, but if you run into her at some stage, shout her a sub.
