HERE WE GO...WIMBLEDON 2012 !

[MrsVamos]

I take it we are all sitting comfortably, and have the strawberries, cream and champagne at the ready ?

Here's to a fantastic 2 weeks of tennis !

VAMOS RAFA

Excuse me! but.....why did it start at 1pm?? Traditionally the defending champ always started at 2! Nice to hear Becker commentating. He is luffly- definitely improved with age (but I was always and Edberg girl)

And Nalbandian is playing....grrr.....

Linky no worky, Glaikit, but yes Tsonga is very much worth the watching. I'm also liking the Serbian, Tipsarevic.

This better?

Vamos Ferrero!

Yum

That man is naked!

Very nice.

Oh great, I hoped someone would have started a Wimbledon thread :)

This year I am glued to the sofa BFing 2wk old DD so will get to see most of it instead of being at work :)

I'm not particularly a huge Nadal or Djokovic fan. Would rather see Federer or Murray win but I think that's unlikely!

Do you think ferrero likes to spoil us, like the ambassador?

I'm very fond of Marcos Baghdatis- he reminds me of a bear. I like beardy blokes.

Congratulations SES! Enjoy the newborn snuggles. And sniff her head lots. That smell goes away so quickly, and is replaced by really smelly nappies!!

Thanks Glaikit :)
Trying to make the most of the sport filled summer. Just the days when 3yo DS is not at pre-school may be more of a struggle! Maybe I can get him interested in the tennis?!

Ah you already know about the smelly nappies then!

Oh god the music. Nooooooo!!!!!.

Oh bugger. So now it is on 1 and 2 and i am going to get confused. (Dh always tries to get me use the red button, and watch 2 matches at once, but it is more than my brain can cope with)

Tim Henman too. the memories are flooding back......

Poor sparkling and her son raindelay!

Ferrero is disappointing me

I am laughing a DD2- she has mad curly hair, and looks like Mcenroe circa 1980

mn keeps crashing...that's not tennis!

Raah - it keeps crashing on me too, Grr!

Djokovic seems to have settled in well. Just switched to BBC2 and Venus in trouble. I do like the Williams sisters. They really seem to play because they want to play as well as win.

Well- Ferrero is going home then. And Venus too, by the looks of things (though she is probably in the doubles)

x-post. I do like Venus- I think the williams' sisters got some bad press- but I'd much rather see them play, then one of the endless stream of Russians, who all play the same and then vanish. She's been very ill, venus. It's good to see her still there.

(I can,however, do without listening to Virginia Wade- she rambles, and makes no sense. She is like the Will.i.am of tennis commentators)
