WIMBLEDON 2013- Week 2- NEW BALLS!

[Raahh]

New thread, as no doubt we will soon fill up the other.

I will, a sparkly new thread. Can't believe it's Wednesday tomorrow

I know, its kind of like, huge excitement verses deep despair.

No, no, no. The Ferrer match needs to go to 5 sets and be at least 3, preferably 4.5 hrs.

I'm worried about Kvitova

She doesn't look well, does she?

Seize, you are really v close to my family - loads of them in Dunvant, Sketty, Killay etc. what a coincidence, given that I am chatting with you 250 miles away.

Bathing the children now, with the centre court match on live pause. Will have to re join this thread later as I don't want any spoilers

Oh- look like Bartoli might be winning. Shame- I like Stephens, and she doesn't prance around between every point like she has worms.

Serena may have a large backside, but there is no wobble on it. It is really impressive.

I saw Annabel Croft at Wimbledon about seen years ago. She is stick thin. Incredibly sticky thin. I would take Serena's figure over hers any day.

oohhhh....Sloane has broken back....

Happy - I'm from SKetty and went to Olchfa!

I wish Ferrer/El Potato match was on second to give me something to lust over look forward to. Cos I just know that he will go out, and then Wimbledon will become a darker place for me!

My friend just dropped round to return the hedge trimmers (see, I told you I had an exciting life) and I insisted on showing her a picture of my new crush. She duly admired him and asked how old he was. When I told her she said "But ds1 is nearly 20". Made me feel like a dirty old woman (not intentionally I'm sure).

I wish they'd shut up about Flipkens being 5ft 5.

That's flipping gargantuan, that is

Bartoli is through,

Kvitova looks done in.

hello. tennis and mumsnet time!

can I say how much im enjoying these tennis threads, even if some of us like different players for different reason, thers no bitching, no trolling, no AIBU's i'ts jolly hockey sticks (or should I say jolly tennis racquets ).

can I also recommend Starbucks straberries n cream drink, it's the tast of Wimbledon . ooh, another upset due on centre court now?????

She looks really ill.

ooh, that sounds nice.

Poor Kvitova. She looks like she is going to cry.

That was a bit of a last chance challenge that one. She needs a couple of paracetamol, a blanket and good DVD now I think.

that was a scary kvitova face then .she doesnt look well though.

well done,Kittens . i like her coach/boyf/whoever he is

Jolly Hockey Sticks - chuckle - am liking that
Ey, we are a fine bunch of tennis admirers here. I can not tell you how happy I was to stumble across ya all... Sigh - happy feeling inside.

Gutted for Kvitova, she looked rather sickly really.

I will have one of those Strawberry & creams thanks game
Costa (just to make this completely impartial!) make a mean white cho and raspberry one of them - God, lush - might go get me one of them for tomorrows games....

Poor Petra looks dreadful. I wonder what's the matter.

He is rather dishy game

Im sure the white choc/rasberry drinks good too, Seize but gotta be S & C for the .!

shame Li had to lose, I like her but well done Raddy.

its Rad and Lippy in the semis together tho isnt it? pity that wasnt the final.

dont like Bartoli, more like Barnum. talk about ants in your pants.

theres seniors doubles going on the red button but im looking for Lecont/Bahrami!!

MacNamara and MacNamee vs John and Patrick MacEnroe in senior invitational doubles on court 1.

speaking of dishy, there was a douybles player today, Robert Farah, playing Meltzer/Blake.

Now HE was pleasing to the eye! never seen him before (she says usually priding herself on her knowledge).

Hes Spanish or Argentinian. check HIM out!
