NEW THREAD

[purpleprincess]

Raah it's done!!

[Raahh]

purple- I think it is tradition, because years ago the first threads were in telly addicts and we have just stayed here. it's a bit easier to find for people who just pop in, than the sports threads. Although there is a Wimbledon topic, I think.

We like it here

And yy, a new thread for the start of Queen's - very excited. The tournament upgrade has meant got a really strong field of players this year.

[purpleprincess]

Yay, Vamos etc

Should we start a grass court tennis thread? Still two weeks before starting a wimby one. Btw why are they always in Telly Addicts...I guess it's because we all watch it on TV? Just curious.....

[Raahh]

magi it's good, isn't it? Happy day.

[magimedi]

Vamos, indeed!

And Queen's starts tomorrow.

Happy bunny, that's me.

[Raahh]

yay! Well done to Rafa. Champion in Stuttgart for the 3rd time. ( first time on grass).,

the matches were close, but it's a win. Got to boost his confidence ahead of queen's and Wimbledon.

Vamos!!

[Raahh]

I mean Troiki, obviously. since Cilic beat Zverev yesterday

[Raahh]

Hearts- something tells me, he wasn't thinking much at all. I mean, it's a mop head. It probably had a faint smell of flash floor cleaner, not blooming chicken!

Rafa safely through to the final in Stuttgart. Cilic not, so Zverev is his competition.

Vamos

[HeartsTrumpDiamonds]

Sigh. What on earth are puppies thinking when they eat these things!

[Raahh]

won

[Raahh]

but to cheer me up, Rafa has win his semi final today in Stuttgart.

Raahhpuppy hasn't been well, turns out the silly mutt ate 4 thick strings off a floor mop , which got stuck in his intestines. He has had surgery and today is just wandering around d feeling sorry for himself. He is not fond of the buster collar .

[Raahh]

for the purple

The website is still utter pants though

[purpleprincess]

Hi Raahh. Calm down its only a website....I've just had a look and think they have made it mobile/tablet friendly. Think the old one was very desktop whereas new one looks much more up to date.

I'm sure you will get used to it.......

[Raahh]

Rafa won his second match, against Tomic. Still finding his feet, but a win is a win.

And the ATP tour website has changed. It is shit. I am really cross.

[Raahh]

Well, Rafa made heavy weather of his match against Baghdatis, but pulled through in the end. All good practice.

[Raahh]

ooh, good start for Rafa- he's won his first doubles match with Lopez.

Small steps, Rafa, small steps.

[MajesticWhine]

ah. nice clip of Stan paying tribute to his shorts

[magimedi]

[MrsVamos]

[MrsVamos]
