:o at MrsVamos!

Great start for Fed :).

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 16:50

This isn't much of a match. I'm getting bored. But I can'r move, or switch off, or the dcs or dh might claim the tv, and we can't have that!

I've had to put nemo on to calm ds down after he took a header off the sofa. He is a stunt man in the making I know it! My dad sings the theme from the fall guy at him!

Can anyone give me a run down of the action pleas?

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:07

Blimey, the rate these matches are going the main matches will be over by 6pm!

I used to be so so lucky with tickets - every year usually for the first week but have had mens quarters & semi's a couple of times and women's final the year Jana Novotna won ! Then I moved overseas and now I am back the 'random ticket giver - outer' seems to have forgotten my name Sad

Loved Lendl , Jakob Hlasek , Goran Ivanisevic and Javier Frana back in the day
Now its Nadal , J-W Tsonga and Mardy Fish ( I loved him the minute I heard his name Grin ) .....oh and Mr Isner - I like a tall man Wink

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:09

Glaikit, it's all a bit dull, tbh. Dickdjok won easily, Venus Williams is out, Federer is thrashing this nice young Spaniard.

Ah, Mardy Fish. We filled up nearly a thread last year on rubbish fish-related punsGrin

Lendl was brilliant, but he had very tight shorts. He's coaching Murray now.

My first tennis crush was Ilie Nastase. Blush

That makes me feel very old indeed.

Stilla · 25/06/2012 17:18

I know , I did get a little excited when that was announced .Not keen on Murray though , not even with added Lendl !

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:18

I don't like total white washesGrin

Murray with added lendlGrin

His wife was/is stunning. And he has 5 daughters, iirc. Talk about out-numberedGrin i always felt for him at Wimbledon, he got to the final so often ,and never wonSad

Stilla · 25/06/2012 17:23

Isn't one ( if not 2) of his daughters a golf pro ?

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:25

I think 2 of them- he took up golf after quitting tennis through injury.

I sobbed my heart out the year Pat Cash beat him

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:26

The Spanish aren't having a good day. But there are dozens of them in the draw nearly. We can only dream of that kind of situation in Britain!

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:27

I never liked Pat Cash, really. And the climbing up the crowd business. Show off.Grin

IAmSherlocked · 25/06/2012 17:48

Have found you! Went into threads I'm on and followed the clues in the new thread title Grin

Just got back from work - TV on and child eating tea in front of the tennis Blush - it only happens during Wimbledon fortnight, honest guv...

What've I missed? Caught the end of Rog's match - looking lovely as usual, Mr. Federer.

RaahhfaNadalsmyToyboy · 25/06/2012 17:51

IamSherlocked- it's not been the most memorable opening day, tbh. A bit of rain migh have livened things up a tadGrin

Nadal tomorrow- that should be better!
