Grass court tennis/Queens championships thread

Looking forward to a great few weeks of tennis!! Should we be asking MNHQ for some balls!!

So who is going to do well this year? Stan has tough first round match against Kyrios......and Nadal is playing Dolgo I think?

tall- stupid phone.

Raining.

It's been very wet here all day too. I got drenched walking the dog. it's that fine rain that wets you, as Peter Kay would say.

Will it be Tigger or Eeyore today?

Well, it's a bit gloomy. If Murray starts losing, I predict Eeyore

DH on his way home with the kittens. For all I'm a grump about it, I am looking forward to seeing our wee girls with them. Have just set up their living area. We were all supposed to go but DD1 woke us up this morning by walking into our room and vomiting on the carpet. That fits with yesterday.

Do we really have to think about Murray at this point? The first match hasn't even started! They do take their "British interest" too far.

Where is this tournament based?

Kittens! pictures please. I would love a cat but grumpy old git DH doesn't like them

Hoping for a Murray / Simon final as hopefully it would mean more rallies and a more interesting match.

Do we know how tall Anderson is?

He's tall, Anderson, but he is no Isner

I'm not able to watch at the moment , due to the dcs taking over the tv because of the rain delay.

I want Anderson to win

for once my jinx isn't working.

Introducing Gilbert and Sullivan. (The white one is Gilbert Brush and the black one Sullivan Hush.) This is probably the best picture I've managed to get. For some reason they won't stay still.

Here they are in their little kitten bed.

I'm on my phone, so can't see the pictures- I will check later when dd2 stops watching minecraft videos on you tube .

Lovely kittens, slightly bored of the tennis and have just remembered there are kittens at my vets for sale! I could go there now and get one, then we could look at pictures of it! They're ginger, my favourite colour, I've already got two but it's going to be a while before murray.........

Well I have got the tv back.

Lovely kittens.

DD1 managed to smash the glass jug of my vair expensive blender earlier trying to make sno-cones. I needed some cheering up so thanks

God I am finding the tennis boring. now there is a sentence I never thought I would say!

Well Simon might just be able to level the match. Maybe.

Anderson serving for the match...

might be a long tie break.

Kittens are sooo sweet. Love the names.

I say, go for it tadpole then I can vicariously enjoy!

Sorry about your blender hearts can you find one on eBay or similar?

Tiebreak is pretty good ...

and now we have a 3rd set...

Oh, yay Simon!

oh dear, could Nishikori be injured?

there's a shame

What a shame about your blender, Hearts. Like Bagel says, maybe Amazon or eBay?
