True. Kipling is one of my favourite writers and lived not far from where I grew up in Sussex. The characters in the original story were a little different from their movie versions… Rafa is definitely more the Mowgli from the films! Sweet, bold, shy, fun, and secretly feared by Shere Khan! ;)

Interesting tit bit. Rudyard Kipling wrote jungle book, he also wrote the poem IF which was used in the 08 vid made for wimby, staring none other than our sweet Mowgli & the vicious Shere Khan. We know who won!!!!

Cute description, but I still think the best description of Rafa ever = Mowgli. Which makes Uncle Toni = Bagheera, Moya/Feli = Baloo, and Fed = Shere Khan ;)!

Loving that black shirt and love the comments, Rafa does look thinner, it wouldn’t surprise me if he is on some strict diet regime to improve his fitness etc, he really must be disciplined now.
The tennis world needs a healthy Rafa, the greatest competitor to walk on a tennis court..

Killian, I’m another who dislikes cheese & know others as well who don’t care for it.
Something to do w/textures & flavor going down. I know sounds strange as that could apply to any number of foodies.

You all are so funny w/comments. Re; tequila? Rafael does “infrequently” have uno/dos
but not big on “alcohol” in general. Loves his soda; coke. H20 always!!

Yup, I am British (not Brit pleeese *praying hands*)…and er, I used plonker instead of something more pejorative that wd not be suitable ;-))… but hope you agree with the sentiment, that hell, Rafa would make a bin bag sexy!

Carol, u’ve got to be a Brit. ‘Plonker’ is such classic Brit slang. LOL. I prefer to call anyone else wearing this AO gear a ‘dag’.

Heee, heee – I can only add “or an obscenely creamy Gorgonzola” to quote my favourite food writer and cook, Nigel Slater. Perhaps enough said, poor Rafa?? Pity he hates cheese.
