Of course ! After lunch is a given. Grin

Sprink · 05/06/2016 15:13

Bugger.

CremeEggThief · 05/06/2016 15:15

You mean after lunch and before cocktail hour (afternoon tea)?Wink

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:15

Crowd are desperate for Novak, aren't they ?

Och, wild shot Novak.

He sounds like he's struggling with his breathing too.

Sprink · 05/06/2016 15:17

That's okay--it will make the Murray comeback more exciting. Nothing worse than a rout!

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:17

Rats.

Come on Andy, regroup.

Flower of Scotland....

What is he doing ??

CremeEggThief · 05/06/2016 15:20

To be fair, all those hospitality guests at Wimbledon get on my nerves too. How many of us would KILL to be there, and yet they get the chance, and spend all day in the marquees, quaffing Pimms and scoffing overpriced strawberries and cream?Angry They are at least quiet and polite though, when they're watching.

Sprink · 05/06/2016 15:21

Crowd are desperate for Novak, aren't they

Which is unusual. I've always liked him but he rarely wins over the crowd.

Creme, yes! French fans can only watch tennis in those three golden hours between dejeuner and aperitif. If this goes to four or five sets, expect a mass exodus. Wink

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:21

That's better..

Morgan · 05/06/2016 15:23

Gotta love the French !

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:23

Creme

Completely agree. Effing 'celebs' and MPs etc with freebies. Angry

Sprink · 05/06/2016 15:23

Join a small, local club! Your chances for tickets on the club's ballot draw are pretty good. Plus you get to go and play when you want, which is great fun.

Morgan · 05/06/2016 15:23

Right break back pls

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:24

Thank goodness. Least no bagels. Phew.

Morgan · 05/06/2016 15:25

I bought a ticket for the Atp finals this week as failed to get any for Wimbledon this year ( again ) no luck in the ballot at my club .

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 05/06/2016 15:27

I've never been to Wimbledon

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 05/06/2016 15:27

Was that Prince Andrew??

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:28

Hope you're not sitting up in any of the high levels Morgan.

Its really horrible.

MrsVamos · 05/06/2016 15:28

NoBarbaraGood · 05/06/2016 15:29

Perhaps things would improve for Andy if a fine mist could begin to fall.

Off to check accuweather....
