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.

Umm, well - I have it on in kitchen but also in living room in case I need to go in there for anything so, I have to run into one room or the other when they change channels.
Ds is in living room with headphones on, on a computer game....

farley- that is very true. I'd be walking miles a day

love me, my arse - I have dropped numerous hints to elder dd - she works, her partner works - I need a spare room... iIll she go? Will she heck!

I'm scared to watch. I may need wine. Is it wine o'clock yet?

Yes its its gone 5pm - have wine

seize no one here likes Castle! we established that on the Queens cub thread, so you're definitely not alone!

Becker makes me laugh, with his swartchzannegger (sp!) voice and stating the obvious!

Ok seize, move it is then

game See, I knew I would fit in here when I asked to butt in on Wednesday

You're clearly too nice to them seize.

Is the serve and volley revival spreading? Is murray signing up?

chub Not sure about that - my younger dd's nickname is shitface - has been since, God knows when, forever Terrible parenting.

Try being extra nice seize - maybe that will frighten them away! Mine are desperate to leave - well, eldest has left really, next is on verge of going, number three has 'plans' in hand, and number four is only 8.

Oh that last post makes it sound like I'm extra nice to mine - can assure you (and so can they!) I'm not!

True. Clutch them to your bosom every night and sob "never ever leave mummy". You'll barely see them for dust clouds.

Mmmmm steak potato wedges and salad. Nom nom

Think they've got extra security on for Andy.

Well the first set was relatively easy for Andy.

hows it going? Andy makes me too nervous to watch and minigame wanted to watch Merlin so that's on at the mo.

Thanks Raaah for the new thread
Anyone else get the feeling in this first set that Murray is both winning and losing the whole thing himself?!

And yeah for Robson getting through earlier - good on her!

Now off to gnaw my fingernails for the next set....

Farley what do you mean extra security?

Extra security for Andy? Like the security they had in French when that flare man ran on the court with Nadal? I reckon as there is no play because of rain, all the security is in to watch this game.

This may make you all sick but, we all get on too well here, the dc's and I - there is never a cross word, never has been. I have never suffered a slammed door or a tantrum, not even when they were little. I usually say that and hide as I get universally hated. I can't help it, its not me, its them, they are just so nice....

Just won first set

Game - I've only seen big men in suits doing security up to now, but have spotted men in uniform (not policemen) during the game breaks in this set.

I doubt three children have spontaneously turned out to be lovely young adults seize. You're mama Walton.

Hello teej We made them save Murray for you, for after work

ooookaaaay. will pop back on match as soon as merlins finished.

could be case theres no play outside and they've all come in out of the rain? hope its just that.
