Grin Grouchy

Well, I've marked off, 'beat Rafa at RG, and didn't win the title' on my Djokovic BINGO card. Twice.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:35

Raonic has started well.

The picture on the Wimbledon app of him shows him with fluffy hair. Looks better than his skicked back lookGrin

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:38

I don't think Mac likes Boris. Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 01/07/2015 13:44

I stroked them. Blush It was lovely.

Would like Mr Niemenen to do well but I fear that's a tall order. I like Finnish sportspeople.

GrouchyKiwi · 01/07/2015 13:53

What is Mac going on about? Didn't Andy win Queens in 2013 and then go on to win Wimbledon? Or were they not a week apart then?

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:54

Would be nice to see Djokovic pushed- but I don't think I want him to lose this early. Andrew Castle would probably personally engrave the trophy with Murrays name now, if that happened.

Bruce Forsyth.Hmm Does he realise his hair piece is a completely different colour to the rest of his hair?

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:54

grouchy- it wasn't the week before, though. There was a gap.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:57

I'm pretty sure there have been a few who won Queens and Wimbledon- Boris did, and Sampras definitely. And Hewitt.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 14:00

Dimitrov doing well. That's good.

GrouchyKiwi · 01/07/2015 14:02

Ok. I knew they'd moved Wimbledon, just wasn't sure when they did that!

Raahh · 01/07/2015 14:03

Well done Dimi!

Raahh · 01/07/2015 14:12

oops. I am sad here , thinking it is Tuesday , and I don't have to pick up dd1 til 4.

except it is Wedneday.

Hmm I do not want to watch Shrieky. Where is my remote??!

Raahh · 01/07/2015 14:13

Sat, not sad. Though I am sad I have to move!

Raahh · 01/07/2015 14:43

Sad for Jarkko, on his last match.

magimedi · 01/07/2015 14:53

I like Finnish sportspeople

Are you a Raikonnen fan, Grouchy? I am.

Does any one remember, about 5 years ago, someone was playing his last ever match on Centre against Federer. They were great mates & the 'last ever' chap went & sat with Federer during one change over! Can't remember who it was.

Bloody hot here! Slightly worried about my lovely neighbour - he's about 75 & has been out in the garden, in full sun, for 2 hours, shifting stuff & pressure washing. I think he's daft!

GrouchyKiwi · 01/07/2015 15:05

I am, magi. He cracks me up. And Hakkinen was the first driver I supported as a young F1 fan.

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 01/07/2015 15:31

It's bloody freezing on this bus. If I had I jumper with me I'd put it on.

How's the tennis going?

Raahh · 01/07/2015 15:37

Well, since i have been out, Haas has fought back.

Will either be match Raonic or a tie break in the 4th in a minute.

MajesticWhine · 01/07/2015 15:45

Who do you think is more fanciable Haas or Raonic?
(shallow question of the day)

Raahh · 01/07/2015 15:56

majestic- Grin Haas has aged very well indeed.

I think Raonic is sweet- but looks much better with messy hair, than bryl-cremed to within an inch of his lifeGrin

Raahh · 01/07/2015 15:57

Ha! did Castle ever win consecutive matches, Sue? Grin

MajesticWhine · 01/07/2015 15:58

Yeah they are both quite nice aren't they. Raonic looks like he might have a dull personality, but that's unfair, he might not do. It's probably just his tennis that gives that impression.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 16:02

From the little I have seen of him, off court, he seems like a nice guy. He is usually the underdog, though, never seems to have the crowd on his side when he's playing.
There was, of course, the match where there was a dubious shot when he played Del Potro the other year in Montral, which may not have been dealt with in the most sporting fashion. But I've forgiven him now Grin

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 01/07/2015 16:07

Think the bus drivers lost. We've been round this round about twice now.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 16:08
