Thanks for the new thread Raahh 🎾

I’ll probably be cracking open the fake Aldi Pimms next week. Tim will be disappointed that the roof won’t be used Grin

Thank you for the Flowers at the end of the last thread. Honestly, I really don't mind being an 'old'. Better than the alternative, as Maurice Chevalier said! And the great compensation of it is that you no longer give a toss about so many of the things that worried you when you were young.

Just put something on the last thread and found it closed Grin

My sandwich has only just been delivered!

Glad Andy has shaved that awful beard off Grin

He's playing very well - obviously more streamlined Grin
Having said that, Dan has just broken!

I had to make my own sandwich kazza

I guess you’re right magi

Luckily I’m sat on my own so no one can ask me why I’m sniggering away to myself Grin

Looks as if Dan is coming back in this set

Jamie Delgado just had to retrieve some of the balls from behind the scoreboard and the umpire had to fix the net. With the wooden benches it is a bit like a game in a park! Bet Dan wishes he had his own personal ball boy!

Maybe he could ask one of the trolley collectors from Tesco to do him a favour?

Yes I was just about to say about Andy's beard!! He must have taken your comments on board kazza

Jane Grin yes so true. magi I like your style.

Sadly I missed the butterfly excitement! Hope it got a mention from the commentators.

The butterfly only got a very brief mention Spidey - I was very disappointed - and it was a red admiral not just a common or garden cabbage white!

I much prefer the benches at Murray's end.
The ones at Dan's end have been creaking annoyingly all week Grin

Good win for Dan. They should play a recording of some cheering or something, it felt so wrong he just went and sat down (on the creaky bench) in silence!
