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.

"It's always the people that pay the most for their seats that see the least tennis here". Sing it, Mats. Bloody rude, I call it, wandering back and forth from your front row seat. Should be like the theatre. Just clench. Or at least leave during a break, and wait to return till the next break.

Raahh · 22/01/2014 09:30

Juan - hope you dh gets sorted.

I'm not sure i can really sit here all day but iwill try Grin

Raahh · 22/01/2014 09:32

I hope it's Stan in the final- he deserves it after yesterday's performance, but he needs to keep up the momentum (which he doesn't always).

Fed has a break.

Raahh · 22/01/2014 09:59

2 sets to Federer! It's looking good.

threebats · 22/01/2014 10:00

I'm taking a break too, running ds to college. By the time I get back, this may well be over.
I hope Stan is in final also...

Hope your dh is okay juan
Keep going to write Farley...

Raahh · 22/01/2014 10:09

mmmm...lots of shots of the lovely Stefan.

magimedi · 22/01/2014 10:31

Hope your DH is OK, PJuan.

Am only following on line, in between shopping & some cleaning & am off for a swim shortly. Think Fed is going to do it.

Raahh · 22/01/2014 10:36

wow- shot!

Raahh · 22/01/2014 10:37

Serving for the match. Brilliant stuff.

I just hope the commentators don't start minimising how brilliantly Fed has played, by harping on about Murray's back...

Raahh · 22/01/2014 10:42

C'mon Fed! You can still do it!!

MrsSteptoe · 22/01/2014 10:48

bound to be some discussion of Murray's back - after all, he is a British player, the more recent Grand Slam winner, and the younger player, so it's not unreasonable - but I think the commentators will be ALL OVER the transformation of RFed.

I'd like to see this go to five sets though don't want to have to get up and start doing stuff

Raahh · 22/01/2014 10:54

I don't want to go anywhere either- but will have to move in a bit to get dd2 from nursery.

They've got half an hour...Grin

Nadal managed to finish, at the exact time i needed to leave this morning.

threebats · 22/01/2014 11:02

Oh crikey - I just got back in time to see that tie break. And the game goes on... Making yet more coffee. How am I meant to do an assignment now?

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 22/01/2014 11:06

Bugger. I hate it when work gets in the way of tennis. Grin

Morning. It's day's like this that I'm very thankful that I'm a SAHM, wish dc was still little enough to nap though.

Raahh · 22/01/2014 11:17

I really don't want to go out now- it's rainingSad

MrsSteptoe · 22/01/2014 12:01

And there you go. Thanks for the company. Enjoy your day.

Raahh · 22/01/2014 12:02

Woot!

Raahh · 22/01/2014 12:12

Bye! Have a good afternoon.

JuanPotatoTwo · 22/01/2014 13:42

Didn't get to see match beyond first two sets but glad Rog won. Dh has, according to gp, reactive arthritis. I'm sceptical though - he has so many health issues I tend not to believe Gp. Am waiting for a call back from his renal consultant (who is my real life crush). In the meantime, I have driven Dh to a lecture he is giving and am waiting in the common room where I have just been uncharacteristicly brave and told a lad off for loud swearing. Feeling very proud of myself for my fearlessness in the face of adversity Grin

Well done for telling the lad off. I bet he felt very small.

Do hope your DH is OK .

You do realise that having more than one crush diminished your love for El Potato!! I shall be ringing him later to tell him of your perfidious infidelity (and to arrange our Saturday night)!!!!

magimedi · 22/01/2014 13:52

I am actually sorry that Rog won - I love his tennis & could watch him play all day, but I dislike his smugness. I wanted Andy to win & go the whole way - I've really warmed to him in the last couple of years. But don't fancy him one bit!
