Yy, Rafa* I wish Bouchard/Halep was the Final too.

That's what moments of drunkeness do for you, you silly woman ! I did say to you when you mentioned it to cancel !

Any way you can wriggle out of it ? Sudden 24 hour bug ? Wink

Rafa- i think it would be a great final. I really do see a bright future for them both. (But I've been wrong beforeGrin).

But it will be a final without a Williams sister, or Shrieky again- which can only be a good thingGrin

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 03/07/2014 13:56

Who was it whose DH organised a BBQ on finals weekend last year? Was that you or Juan?

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 13:56

Loom bands

You'll have to remind me next year that if either of my DCs want to go to any concerts, May June & July are OUT.

Especially Men's Finals Day !

I think I can move it to another Friday and just take an additional day of annual leave. I don't think my friend will mind. She'll be quite happy to stay at home and finish some of her artwork I hope.

Raahh · 03/07/2014 14:01

now- dilemma.

If Rafa had got to the final, i was going to treat myself to an alcoholic drink or two on Sunday. However, he isn't. Now, I don't actually miss the booze at all, and I don't want to drink just for the sake of it, but it would be nice I suppose.

And Pimms is really just fizzy pop, right?

Wine Tennis

I'm a little bored- sorry Kvit and Saf. Tracey Austin's voice goes right through me. Where is Martina???

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 03/07/2014 14:02

I'm seriously gutted that the WTA finals have moved from Istanbul this year. Last year was good, but this year will be amazing I think.

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 14:02

Good idea.

There could be plenty of days during hols when you give anything to get out for the day ?!

Might be a welcome relief ?

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 03/07/2014 14:03

It is just fizzy pop. And I heard a rumour that it was only £10 a bottle in Morrisons.

Raahh · 03/07/2014 14:04

Rafa - my Dh invited his BIl over on the day of the RG final last year. I was LIVID. I mean, Rafa and Ferrer in the same final- and you want me to cook a BBQ?

I was a very ungracious hostBlush (Bil totally understoodGrin). I was much better behaved when he came over for ChristmasGrin

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 14:04

Pimms is definitely fizzy pop. Grin

I'm partial to a snowball meself, doesn't have to be Christmas !

Since neither of us have children and the place we were going is a tourist attraction very popular with families, I think we will avoid holidays. I'm thinking Sept and hope the weather holds out.

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 14:07

That's what I love about HE with my 2.

Not only do I get to watch tennis and not have to worry about pick up times etc...we get to go to loads of places during term time and enjoy them with less people about. Smile

OP posts:
Raahh · 03/07/2014 14:08

i love Snowballs. With an added shot of vodka.

My mum's step mother, though used to make them for us every Boxing day- from a bottle she had had for YEARS.

One year, it was all curdled. we declined after that.
(I was about 8 at the timeGrinGrin)

GrouchyKiwi · 03/07/2014 14:11

Am trying to decide whether I'm going to watch today or have a day off. Bouchard-Halep will probably be good, though. Right?

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 14:13

grouchy

Day off ?

I no understand....

Checking in.
Feeling a bit uninspired by the tennis today. wonders if I've over-dosed

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 14:15

I think Petra had got this match.

OP posts:
GrouchyKiwi · 03/07/2014 14:15

Feeling a bit saturated with tennis. (This coming from a person who can watch, happily, the entirety of a 5-day cricket test.)

But suspect I will watch the second semi.

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 03/07/2014 14:17

Bouchard and Halep should be good. I'm trying to weigh up a trip to Morissons for some free veg. Not sure I'll fit it in today. Hopefully migh be able to fit it in tomorrow morning.

MrsVamos · 03/07/2014 14:24

I can't manage to watch 10 minutes of cricket ! Just don't see the appeal.

This match has been a bit meh. Its almost as if you are waiting for the main event.
