TENNIS thread - We wave goodbye to SW19, and look forward to the hardcourt season.

Before we run out .

By be Wimbledon

[Raahh]

By be ?

WTF does that mean?

Bye Bye! As Fabrice would say.

[kazzaD66]

Raahh

[JaneJeffer]

Eat something Raahh for the love of God!

[kazzaD66]

Missed everything after the speeches as had to rush to kitchen.

Dinner now cooking

[Raahh]

Evening kazza

Dh got very excited by the cricket.

He doesn't even like cricket. He does/has played softball though. He's an umpire now. I suppose they both involve bowling and batting

[Raahh]

Jane

[kazzaD66]

Now on G&T, with some of the Pimms fruit

Nice Rioja looking at me ready on the dining table

[PrivateIsles]

Thanks Raahh

Carbs for you

[mama1980]

Thanks raahh for the new thread.

[Raahh]

Cheers, Private.

I need to soak up the Pimms. I didn't have that much. I'm just that drained- by a match I wasn't fussed about -that I feel more tipsy than I should!

[kazzaD66]

It's a good job DS hasn't got school tomorrow

[Raahh]

You are all welcome.

[Fizzywinegum]

Thanks for the new thread Raahh

DS1 tried to explain the cricket “tiebreak” to me but I wasn’t really interested.

[PrivateIsles]

kazza you just reminded me that there was some wine left (I know, unheard of!) - just poured some out to go with my sandwich

[Raahh]

Unfortunately , both dd1 and dd2 are still at school. So I do need to be up. DD2 is still not quite right- but they have a transition week at her school, where she spends time in her new class. I really need her to go in.

[Raahh]

That was a quick set.

[Fizzywinegum]

It was the final set that finished me off - I managed to miss the handshake and the non celebration - I think I was waiting to see if Djok ate the grass!

[Raahh]

I missed the end too, Fizzy

The last point was just a bit of an anti climax, I think, and I got distracted.

Made me laugh when he ate the grass though.

[Fizzywinegum]

Now it’s Tour de France

Bye bye Wimbledon

[JaneJeffer]

I enjoyed Djokovic's grass eating face

[Raahh]

Do you think he was wondering what the smell was, Jane?



'this grass, it has a bit of an odour'

[Fizzywinegum]

Me too Jane and Raahh

[JaneJeffer]

I think his expression said I may be eating shitty grass but I won Wimbledon so nerr

[PrivateIsles]

In case you want to know the last time someone won Wimbledon from match point down was 1948 - according to twitter.

[Raahh]

What happened.

Has anyone else just had the tennis go off- no Voice of Doom.

Nothing.
How unbelievably rude.
