[Raahh]

(Apologies to any French speakers and for lack of cedilla- hazy 'A' level French and an English keyboard)

Looking forward to Monfils/Federer

Right- no more messing about Jo.

Allez

noooo

Thank you.

ALLEZ JO !

He's going to do it ! Bloody fantastic !

Don't fail us now!!

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS !

WELL DONE JO-WILFRIED TSONGA !

BRILLIANT !

yes!!!!!!

made hard work of that.

There you go, Juan. We looked after him for you.

Bless him

Awwwwwww. That's just so lovely.

Bless Jo.

they always move the camera when they strip

Ha ! Raahh. Yet again, great minds think alike.

I told you earlier I heard raucous noise.

I knew he'd win. I predicted it.

Same as Rafa.

RG #10 here Rafa comes !

VAMOS RAFA !

Did he just say 'le second set' ?

I'd like to see Jo beat Stan.

I expect its difficult sometimes being bi or multi-lingual.

I can just about manage English.

And no sarky remarks about 'le sex', please.

I hope Jo does beat Stan- because I do not want any kind of repeat of the Aussie. A Rafa/Jo final.

There wont be. Rafa's not poorly or injured so all will be well.

Trust me.

I am v.v.v.v. cross.

They are showing the Murrary match on the TV - which means I have to watch the Djok?Rafa on the computer, which I suspect will have buffering issues.

DH is away tomorrow & his train gets in to local station at 15.45 - he knows I won't be picking him up!! Taxi or walk, my darling, or divorce!

I so hope you are right, Mrs V - I so want Rafa to beat Djok, but Murray or Tsonga to raise the trophy on Sunday!

Oh good work gals - you brought Jo through :) See you demain.

More furniture arriving at some point today. Fun. Hope it doesn't interrupt a tense moment!

Disappointing they're not showing the Nadal match but maybe we'll get to see some of it.

Does anyone know what time the Murray match is due to start? Google fu is not strong with this one...

Grouchy- I think both matches are second on after the women. They start at 1pm (our time) iirc. So, it's anybodies guess hous long they may take. Say 2 hours and the men could be out at about 3pm

and

                   feliz cumpleanos! <strong>HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAFA</strong>

Grand, thanks Raahh.

Noooo! It's a disaster. We have sky with every sports channel possible but is it correct that I can't watch the Nadal and Joc game. . Please tell me it's not true.

I'm really really dissapointed.

Have decided to watch while making furniture. Marion and Sam have both said they like Serena's outfit. It takes all sorts.
