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.

Wow, 330,000 bananas would take some peeling - you'd think they'd definitely need some help! You could demonstrate to each and every player the correct way to peel a banana - the demonstrations would, of course, have to be on a one-to-one basis.

Definitely one to one Wink

The commentator on Djok v Benneteau is annoying me - he's calling Djok "Joke-o-vitch". It's shades of "Del Powtro" again. Mama, how can your dd like Dogs Bollocks but not be sure about Pot? I'm shocked I tell you :). I asked dd about ayutthaya - she said she had been but didn't see much of it. I had an email earlier about buying WTF tickets. Haven't done so yet but will. Think I might go for the Fri and Sat again. How did you decide which days to go?

Right- Gulbis or isner?

I've never warmed to Isner. During 'that' epic match, I was wanting Mahut to win Grin He's a solid player, tall bloke, but seems a bit dull. Had a pretty good year last year- always seemed to be in the latter stages of things.

Gulbis is more interesting - if only to see if he keeps his temper. Grin

I wants gulbis too rahhh as you say at least he's never dull!

I know Juan what can I say she says potato is too 'perfect' she calls him a thunderbird (frantically warns dd to run and hide Grin) Blush. The way the round robin works you will see everyone if you go for two days otherwise you just pick a day and it's pot luck who you will see, you don't find out before the day.

JuanPotatoTwo · 15/03/2014 11:47

I wanted Gulbis to win too - despite being stroppy he's at least interesting to watch, whereas Isner's soooo boring. I never warmed to him either, wonder what it is about him? Hopefully Djok will dispatch him.

Mama show dd some pics of Pot without his shirt on and see if she changes her mind Grin.

I like Potato because he's a bit scruffy- and hairy. One of the only things I don't like about Nadal is is hairless-ness Grin

Isner looks like a very typical 'jock' - very all American. I bet his dad is called John , and his grandad. I'm sure he's actually a lovely bloke. Grin

Where is Jack Sock these days?

Go Fed!

Raahh · 15/03/2014 20:25

Go Fedberg!

Bye bye Dogs!

Raahh · 15/03/2014 22:36

1 set all to Isner and Djok- really want a Fed/Djok final.

Raahh · 15/03/2014 23:16

Well, the final set was easy enough.

Fed/Djok final- not what I expected at the beginning of the tournament!

Most important factor for the Fed revival is playing with a healthy back. Last year was agony for him and it is wonderful to see him playing so freely again.
Edberg was a great appointment and keeps it interesting for Rog. I thought he was delightful to Dolgopolov at the net tonight.

Mama1980 · 16/03/2014 07:49

Fed/djokovic final, no prizes for guessing who I want to win!

I'll try that Juan, Grin
So tired this morning my youngest two are still trying some kind of evil who can sleep the least competition.

Raahh · 16/03/2014 12:06

I think Federer really rates Dolgopolov- they practised together in Dubai. I am starting to warm to him, he seems to be well liked by a lot of the players. The more I read about him, the more I hope he can do well this year- and he's certainly started well. And it must be hard, knowing the situation in Ukraine.

I read, he 'hopes he can put some smiles on face' - I think he will.

(can to tell I'm feeling hormonal and soppy today?) Grin

Right, i am now ready to refresh my screen. I will be happy with whoever wins, but in my heart, I would like Fed to win.

Go team Fedberg!

Mama1980 · 16/03/2014 21:16

Tight first game but fed holds. They both look really energetic bouncing around the court.

Mama1980 · 16/03/2014 21:18

Some amazing shots. Ds1 is being allowed to stay up and is cheering loudly for djokovic.

Raahh · 16/03/2014 21:38

Refreshing the screen like a mad woman- only for my laptop to crashAngry

Great start for Fed!

Raahh · 16/03/2014 21:42

I think it's on Sky sports 3 (but i don't have skySad- so I just watch the scores on the ATP siteGrin )

Raahh · 16/03/2014 21:43

And first set Fed!

noddyholder · 16/03/2014 21:45

Mama1980 · 16/03/2014 21:47

Mama1980 · 16/03/2014 21:48

Raahh · 16/03/2014 22:21
