three, don't worry, I am a one man woman and it's Pot all the way for me (unfortunately, as I am old enough to be his mother). Never fear, Boris is safe.

raahh, your doc is speedy. Glad you have a bit of relief.

Yay! super late to the thread but I love Stan. I follow him on Twitter and he's hilarious.
Can't stand Djoko (although I thought everyone loved him) so it's a bonus to see him lose.

My father and I were losing our rag throughout the fifth set.

noddyholder · 21/01/2014 14:20

Is it murray federer tomorrow?

threebats · 21/01/2014 14:40

I can not believe it - Djok has gone and taken Boris with him. What now? When will I see him again? Bloody Djok...

Home - all went as well as can be expected considering the circumstances - admission that the college let ds down in their care which I am happy with - no point flogging a person to death over it I suppose. I will be contacted Thursday with what is going to happen to the chap in question. Going to let it lay now. Ds is happy with things, that is all I care about.

I am going to go to bed super early this evening to hopefully sleep a night through - am getting up at 4.30 to watch tennis - don't care how mad my offspring think I am for doing it.
Grin juan's idea of fair sharing...

I am off to try and locate a phone number for Boris - he needs a hug and a kiss in the cupboard I think. I am free now for the rest of the day so...

anonacfr · 21/01/2014 14:44

But Boris looks so bloated!

Stefan and Mats on the other hand, have aged rather well...

JuanPotatoTwo · 21/01/2014 14:52

noddy, yes it is. Kicks off at 7.30 Australian time so if you're free in the morning, you might get to see it.

three so glad things have been sorted and your ds is happy. Let's hope there is no more nonsense to contend with. And what, pray, is wrong with my idea of sharing? Very generous of me I thought. I'm sorry Djok let you down though and deprived you of Boris

anon, love is blind and all that. I once had the most massive crush on Joey Ramone, thought he was the best looking man I'd ever seen! Now, of course, I know better and that honour goes to my lovely Pot.

As a child Becker was one of my first crushes but I hadn't seen him since last year's Wimbledon and I was shocked at how bloated he had become.
As I said the Swedes seem to age better.

And inexplicably Jim Courier.

BaconAndAvocado · 21/01/2014 15:27

Yippee! Stan won!

Someone else did get a go!

magimedi · 21/01/2014 15:42

Jim Courier did a lot of the commentary on C4's coverage of the French Open last year & he was brilliant. Really knowledgeable without too much waffle.

DevlinMaccabee · 21/01/2014 17:29

Am I right in thinking that Murray and Federer will be on around 8:30 tomorrow morning? Or am I being thick?

BorisBeckersCupboard · 21/01/2014 17:29

I am quite happy to be called Cupboard!!!!
wow Stan the man.
he usually chokes at the last minute against the big guns so was a bit of a shocker. Three no more Boris to see then with Djoko out!
magi I love Djoko but I know what you mean about the warmth. hes very funny, does brilliant impersonations and stuff, but he just looks 'hard' and not soft IYKWIM.
Go Andy!

anonacfr · 21/01/2014 17:42

I want an all Swiss final. In fact I predicted it this morning and after Stan's win I'm clearly a seer and can see the future.

threebats · 21/01/2014 18:21

devlin Yes my love, tomorrow about that time but maybe about 7am - not sure - you'll have to go online to check. I am up to watch Nadal anyhow so will be flicking between channels to catch both if they run into each other - exciting, like the hey-days of Wimbles.

Boris is not bloated. I repeat. Boris is not bloated.
He's like a little chipmunk all hunkered down in his seat, watching with his big, careful, lovely eyes. Onhis butt cheeks he has 'I love three bats' written in bold, black marker - I dared him to moon at the final but alas, Djok ruined it all Grin

BorisBeckersCupboard · 21/01/2014 18:24

LOL at Chipmunk Boris! so true!

JuanPotatoTwo · 21/01/2014 18:34

Does he have two words on each cheek three? Or all four words on both cheeks? These details are important ...

Raahh · 21/01/2014 18:39

Sadly, the Nadal match is probably going to be very early in the morning. But given how little I'm sleeping, I may get to see it. Hopefully the matches before it go on for several hours. Which is probably unlikelyGrin

JuanPotatoTwo · 21/01/2014 21:24

Oh did anyone know that Pam Shriver was married to George Lazenby? Never knew that til I heard it on Pointless earlier. Seem an unlikely couple. And - who mentioned Kevin Bacon earlier? The child whose finger was bitten in "Charlie bit my finger" is my youngest ds's friend.

And so ends my contribution of trivia for the night.

Raahh · 21/01/2014 22:45

Juan- I knew about Pam, and her birthday is Independence day.
I have very few celebrity stories- they all involve selling stuff to Corrie stars or Man utd playersGrin

Raahh · 22/01/2014 04:42

Hmm- not a good start to my day. Just seen dimitrov took first set. Was contemplating getting up to watch. Have a nasty feeling today will be the day dimitrov lives up to the hype.

Vamos rafa!!

JuanPotatoTwo · 22/01/2014 05:43

Morning all. Second set to Nadal.

OP posts:
JuanPotatoTwo · 22/01/2014 05:49

Just seen your post about selling stuff to slabs Raahh - care to elaborate?!

OP posts:
threebats · 22/01/2014 06:23

Morning all. On third set, coffee is brewing. Anybody want one?

threebats · 22/01/2014 06:25

I stared at his butt for ages trying to work out where to out the words juan Eventually we went for this: I love on each cheek and under it three bats. Was going to put from Wales on there as well but that gives the impression he has one in every port - he does not. I am his one true love.

threebats · 22/01/2014 06:30

By the way - have you all seen that thing they have got in Australia? I think its called the sun? Whatever it is, its bright, radiates a happy light and warmth. I was baffled for ages as to what it was but yep, pretty sure its called the sun.
Just let my cats out - in the drizzle - again.

threebats · 22/01/2014 06:44

Are you watching this raahh? Your beloved is battling hard.

JuanPotatoTwo · 22/01/2014 06:53

Third set to Nadal on tiebreak.
