Thread 2.

Here we go.

VAMOS RAFA !

Did I just put a scud on Ward ?

I think a little of both, Tries, but mostly column A.

I sympathise with Haase. I too am having a crap day. Just turned a load of washing pink, including one of DH's white shirts. It's a good thing we have daughters because I'm not sure a boy could retain his dignity in the pretty, delicate shade the nappy inserts and vests are now.

Tries should, of course, be Troels.

Well, that was too easy for Andy. What a shame for Haase.

my red button went off.

Shame about Haase.
I have to go out now.

Lisicki up a break in the third. I do like her.

Well done Andy!!

But the 'vommentary' really made me want a sick bucket.

Going on & on about how well Andy was playing - yes, his ground strokes & volleys were great but his serve was pretty rubbish, very low 1st serve % & had he been playing someone better (or had Haase been there) he would never have won in 3 sets. Andy needs to do some work on his first serve pronto.

I wonder how difficult it is to play someone who normally plays about 75% better than Haase did today? Does it put you off??

Looking forward to Roger & then Rafa - Vamos for Rafa!

Aww, well done lovely Lisicki.

Well done Lisicki and Ward

magi I know what you mean, he needs to get his 1st serve sorted - but his 2nd serve points won was 100% at one point according to the BBC's stats bods.

Luckily I wasn't paying attention to the commentary as had the match on in the background while working

And WELL DONE WARD

Grouchy I too am having crap day/ week so you have my sympathies. Worth trying a slightly toxic colour-run product on the shirt if not the nappy inserts and vests?

Well done ward! Who was commentating that match does anyone know?
Right come on querry!!
Randomly the umpire with that hat on looks like my grandad

Afternoon all lovelies

Oh, Grouchy Poor you. Would - pimms & help ?

Well Done that man James Ward ! Great stuff from him, hope he can keep it going !

Well Done Sabine too.

Roger next then VAMOS RAFA.

We've had a few spots of rain here, nothing worrying.

We've had a death a a burial too. Sorting things out, out of the corner of my eye I see something which I think has been thrown from an upstairs window.

Step outside. Oops. Think I've cleaned the windows too well, little bird gasping its last. Must of smacked into the window.

We've done the right thing and gave the poor soul a nice burial.

Felt awful, I've got quite a selection of bird food bits, and feel like I've killed one off instead of making its life a bit easier.

Well, I'm back and £5 poorer, having been persuaded to buy a picture dd1 made.

I have just switched on to Virginia laughing at the height (I assume) of Kvitova's opponent, who is 5ft 1.

Shut up Virginia.

I keep getting messages on my tv that i need to ring Virgin, because the signal is going off.
I will be livid if it does.

Oops grouchy hope you're days improving.
Aw poor birdie we had a sparrow drown in our water butt I think the heat is disorientating some of them.
First set fed....damn. Come on Querry!

And clearly Querry is another player not listening to me....

Querrey rhymes with ferry, right? Had to switch over because of Henman pronouncing it query. Now I'm stuck with Virginia and doubting myself.

There are two 'rr's' in Querrey, so to me , it should rhyme with Ferry.

But I have a (admittedly not 'English') that obviously rhymes with cave, yet the number of people who pronounce it to rhyme with 'caahve' is funny.

Stefan!!

surname.

now I'm not just spelling things wrong, I'm missing words out

That's good. Not just me then!

The commentator is discussing the number of slams Fed and Rafa have, and saying that Djok may possibly trouble those numbers himself- and Murray There's a fine line between optimism and delusion, imo.

Raahh

Back in time for Rafa, excellent !

Dinners prepped just needs bunging in the oven when we want it.

Roger wins !

Right. VAMOS RAFA !

RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA RAFA
