Wimbledon Thread 2 More pimms anyone ?

[MrsVamos]

Thread 2 on Day 4.

Loving it !

Drama !

Hello lovely !

I got very cross and frustrated.

I even posted elsewhere and told a bloke to feck off and grow a pair.

Coming in to be unpopular (can't watch Shrieky).

1. Wall to wall sunshine here (just outside Eastbourne) all day.

1. I think Beckham is quite fit - but agree about the jacket.

1. Rafa is going to have to sharpen up in first sets next week.

1. Murray to win!!

at MrsV taking out her frustrations on the rest of MN!

MrsV- that's funny.

They are bigging up this Riske person. She probably doesn't stand a chance

Although, she has a break, and I would love to see Shrieky go out.

3 Nonsense. Its how he plays. Always has.

4 Hmmm. We shall see. He will need to sharpen up as will Novak against an actual, proper opponent.

Sorry !

Hmmm. Raahh Riske 3-1 up.

Is there any other play going on ?

Fancy Serena's opponents chances this afternoon.

MrsV

I am offended - I've told you before not to apologise! I love a bit of tennis banter & rivalry!

WTF they aren't playing tomorrow, I don't know. We then could have all descended on Wimby as it would be open house for tickets.

magi

Sorry.

Oh.My.Word ! What an amazing idea !

Probably why they wont !

Oooh.

It could go into a 3rd Monday ?

I'd be well up for that !

No it can't go into a 3rd Monday. I've got to go into work that Monday. I've got this week off.

But you'll be unwell. 24 hour bug.

At this rate I probably will. But unless I wish to be staring at my P45 it's not really an option.

Oh, bless you, lovely.

I do wish we had an [ ice cream ] emoticon.

I LOVE cake and ice cream.

Well, Riske isn't posing much of a, erm, risk then did she

I did have a very faint hope initially.

Ah well. Always next round...

Herr Federer next.

Do we all have our stop watches ready, ladies ?

10 seconds remember...

MrsV what's the 10 seconds please?

shame.

Yes, Fed and his 10 seconds between points. He'll regret that.

And i don't think they are really signing their names- just a scribble

After his last match, he was asked about players taking time between serves. Most pundits took it to be a dig at Rafa, who takes longer than most.

Roger said he sees no reason why it should be longer than 10 seconds, to keep play flowing and so spectators and tv audiences don't get bored.

Twat.

Consensus is that Roger is wrong.

I'd be up for third Monday, if it came to it!

Play about to start on outside courts - hope they get lots of matches done.

Off to watch Roger & it's o'clock (gin even!)

OK thanks. But I agree with him, not keen on all that faffing.

o clock just started ?

Oops.

rhubarb

Can't back up arguement in a hard match or after a long rally though.

Its not always faffing, and it most certainly is not just Rafa.

There should also be the same time between points in ALL tournaments/slams.

I think its an argument that will rumble on, because no-one seems willing to do anything about it. Unfortunately.

Oh look it's Giraldo.

He beat Murray in Madrid, btw

See, Sue said it too...
