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.

You know, I am always deeply suspicious when things appear to be going right..... I have a sense of foreboding about how smoothly Murray is going this week.

I love a tumble-toss. Its been years since I have been able to do one.

FarleyD · 28/06/2013 19:17

I so wish I was like that sieze! I try to keep on top of things but can't pretend to enjoy it in any way. And I have no problem keeping still!

FarleyD · 28/06/2013 19:22

Good job they don't play tennis with cricket balls - some of those shots coming at the speed they do would kill you!

Raahh · 28/06/2013 19:22

Vamos Robredo , because i like you.

It took me a while to understand what DFS meant raahh Not the brightest spark here. And wait till Ferrer finds out you're cheating on him.

Aside from tennis - I have a pine kitchen bench to win on Ebay in 20 mins... Its on my phone so I can stay on Mn on laptop. And watch tennis on Tv. Fingers crossed.

Chubfuddler · 28/06/2013 19:32

Suddenly things aren't going very well.

Raahh · 28/06/2013 19:38

I think you have a thing for Spanish men raahh!

FarleyD · 28/06/2013 19:39

Ooh, how's Dustin doing?

Chubfuddler · 28/06/2013 19:39

Kim looks not pleased.

siezethenight · 28/06/2013 19:40

Raahh is a floozie.... Grin

Witt · 28/06/2013 19:41

has anyone ever camped overnight for centre court tickets?

siezethenight · 28/06/2013 19:42

chub There was a thing on the radio, taking bets about Wimbledon. One of the bets was Murray wins Wimbledon then proposes to Kim on court... Maybe she plonked a hefty odds bet on it herself?

Raahh · 28/06/2013 19:42

I do seem to have a thing for Spanish men!
Brown lost his first setSad

I will be watching Dustin if Murray can wrap this up quickly.

FarleyD · 28/06/2013 19:46

I joined the queue at 2am-ish a couple of times Witt about twenty years ago! Was contemplating doing it with ds1 this year, but firstly he read somewhere that the queues were bigger than ever, and secondly, the forecast for yesterday and today (which is when we wanted to go) was bad, so we wimped out!

sieze - I was thinking the other day about how Nadal, Murray and Djokovic all have long-term girlfriends, and wondering why they haven't married them yet!

Chubfuddler · 28/06/2013 19:46

I did wonder if he would do that if he won last year,but to be fair perhaps they have no intention of marrying ever hope she's persuaded him to make a will.

FarleyD · 28/06/2013 19:48

Those four guys wearing the ANDY t-shirt - what if there'd only been three of them?! Did they have a contigency plan do you think?

siezethenight · 28/06/2013 19:48

I won my pine bench thingie! Hurrah!
Federer is married, yes? I kind of like his wife, she's the most normal looking of the lot - ie: she looks like a woman not a model.

siezethenight · 28/06/2013 19:48

Yes farley Tim!!

Chubfuddler · 28/06/2013 19:50

Feds is married. So is Hewitt. Henman is married too I think, couple of kids? I'm just saying we shouldn't presume they are "just" boyfriend/girlfriend they may be lifelong partners with no plans to wed.

Raahh · 28/06/2013 19:51

Djoko and Murray are only 26, and Rafa, 27- so there's plenty of time to get married, I suppose.

Dustin is very rattled by a line call, and keeps wittering to the Umpire. This irritation may lose him the match.

Tiger tim has three kids according to wiki

Raahh · 28/06/2013 19:52

Federer's daughters are extremely cute.
