Well, I'm looking forward to tomorrow- although the annoying village festival will completely mess up my viewing!SadGrin

What time is it, Raahh ?

Rafa 1st on CC. Rain expected again, you might be lucky if they have to close roof, or stop play and close ?

Sorry, but LOL @ Andy talking to Lee !

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:16

Some potentially good matches again.

OP posts:
Raahh · 27/06/2014 20:22

The fair starts at 1pm. And for once, Rafa is on Centre, so a rain delay won't really help me any. TypicalSad

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 27/06/2014 20:24

Hutchins and Watson were in trouble in the mixed but have levelled the 3rd set 5-5.

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:25

It might, if they start roof open and it rains...

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:25

Great stuff, Rafa.

OP posts:
HarveySchlumpfenburger · 27/06/2014 20:26

Come On. 6-5 now.

Raahh · 27/06/2014 20:26

Positive thinking, MrsV-Grin

Cilic is beating Berdych at the moment. That's ok.

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:27

Can't you go at 1 and just loiter for an hour ?

Or do you have to be there or be square ?

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:27

Feel sorry for Berdych. Another nearly man.

If I were a betting woman I'd be putting money on Andy to win.

He's just so different & more assured this year. The weight of expectation is off his back & he is playing great tennis.

But, I still wouldn't let him leave his trainers boots under my bed.

That space is reserved for Pot!

Raahh · 27/06/2014 20:30

mrsV- Ds has got himself roped into playing steel pans- 2 performances, 1.15. and 2.15.

and it's going to rainSad moan moan moan

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 27/06/2014 20:32

He is looking good at the moment, magi. But Fed also looks stronger tha I've seen him in a while. With Nadal, Djok and Dimitrov as well, I think we're in for an exciting 2nd week.

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:34

Oh, Raahh.

Have Cake and Wine.

You have my sympathies.

Hopefully I will get back to see some of the other matches.

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:42

I'm sure you will.

Fed on CC last, or Stan on Ct.1.

My guy Kyrgios is on court 17

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:44

Ooh yes, provencal saw a bit of his match the other day, he looked good !

OP posts:
MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:45

He's only a puppy, isn't he ! Could be very promising.

Just hope the long match didn't take too much out of him.

OP posts:
Provencalroseparadox · 27/06/2014 20:49

Oh he was just amazing. We thought experience would win out but he never gave up. He had equalled Wimbers record for recovering 9 match points in a game

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 20:52

I bet !

I thought they said it was the 1st time anyone had come back and won having had 9 mps against ?

I shall be watching with interest. Smile

OP posts:
Provencalroseparadox · 27/06/2014 21:01

It said online this morning it equalled the record.

We walked to court 2 with him yesterday. He had his pink Dre headphones in and looked like a gangly kid but he was so great.

MrsVamos · 27/06/2014 21:04

Wonder who the other person was ?!

My DD has pink Dres.

I have SO got to go to Wimbledon.

One day...

OP posts:
Raahh · 27/06/2014 21:08

It is exactly 20 years on Sunday since i went to Wimbledon. It was the second week, Tuesday.

It was a lovely hot day.

I'd love to go again.
