WIMBLEDON - 2013- Second Set!

[Raahh]

Thought we'd have a new thread for today.

It is raining cats and dogs (technical term) here in theNorth West- I am not very hopeful of a full days play at Wimbledon. but fingers crossed. The weather bloke last night today would be 'Frustrating Friday'in terms of play. Fond of alliteration, those Wimbledon types.

FRIDAY ORDER OF PLAY

As I thought,Robson has had an up-grade from court 2 to centre, which should give her a boost.

Looking forward to see if Dimitrov pulls through- and
VAMOS FERRER!!
first upon number 1 court.

Had to have a gin and tonic to calm the nerves whilst watching Ferrer. So glad Djokovic also won this evening!
Now supporting Kimiko :)

come on Crummy!

The world number ones aren't very popular are they?

Does anybody know why Venus isn't playing much these days?

Usual story I think - injuries/age catching up with her.

Oh, that's a shame... We are all just getting older. It sucks.

Think she's been having back problems?

Witt- his tooth is not good. Didn't stop him going off to a softball tournament.

C'mon Kimiko!!

Right. Wimbledon fairy cakes done - butter cream icing and half a strawberry on top.

I am all over this being a mother lark. Oh yes.

You actually made them chub? As in, you did not nip to Tesco and get their pack of 12 cup cake things and pop them on a plate to pass off as your own?
I am very impressed.
Have wine - you deserve some!

No I made them. And I made the buttercream and put it in a piping bag. And the strawberries came from the garden.

I was going to be all jealous Chub as they sound fantastic but then you said wine instead of gin

Can't drink gin anymore. Used to be fine on it, makes me utterly wrecked now.

I was hoping kimiko could give her more of a run than this.

come on Kimi

Nice one chub.

I only drink beer. Common as much around here

Ah phooey!

Serena irritates me so much. What was with the twirling just now??

Pah

D

Awwww, I like Kimi....

Well, ladies, its been a brilliant day, thanks for sharing it with me, made it all the more fun...
Until next time....

Oops

Don't like djok

Don't like serena

hello. just been able to get onto site!

isnt there 'today at Wimbledon' tonight?

bought some duct tape today, going to post it to castle to tape his gob up!

I LOVE DJOKO! why is he so hated here? hes charming, funny, brilliant player, sporstmanlike conduct, very very respectful to opponent and crowd and officials.....why????????

He's not charming or respectful! He did a really contemptuous little tap over the net against chardy and then smirked. It was not seemly. It would have been more sportsmanlike to smash it.

Gameset where were you earlier? I was asking for somebody to go tape up his gob!
You make fair points about Djok...
I am off for a fast shower - Die Hard with a Vengeance is on after news....
I love a bit of Bruce!

ah, bless you, sieze its nice to be missed !

but you can keep Bruce....Im going to dream (hopefully) with : Robredo, Brown, and a cuple of others! Im not greedy, honestly!

I was also wondering if Dolgo was playing for the ladies tourny?

and glad potatp recovered to win.

DolGO/Ferrer match was a joy to watch, such fun and tension at the same time.
