The best fortnight of the year - WIMBLEDON 2016.

[magimedi]

Starts tomorrow.

Anyone else excited?

Oder of play is here

Yy going. This is probably the most important thread of the year.

I also know very little about tennis, but the chat here is lovely.

I love Wimbledon. I have vague memories of Chris Bailey but my MIL said he never got to the final so I'm confused as to what I was watching as I saw match point but thinking about it it was probably third round or something and not the final .

How do you do the tennis balls?

Dm has always watched it. As a teenager I was irritated as neighbours wasn't on but the Isner mahut match drew me back in. Dh likes it too which helps.

Its not all tennis chat.

I have a terrible habit of going off on wild tangents, I can waffle about anything.

All great fun though. Its my escape here.

Going around the time Bailey was playing, the media used to get over excited if a Brit made it to round 2. So you can be forgiven for thinking it was a final

And if one made to the second week, they got the bunting out...

mog [ tennis ] no spaces

mog it's [ tennis ] without the spaces.

We pestered MN for years...and now you can put ANYTHING on a thread, damnit!

Tennis on Sunday detail as announced tomorrow at 1lm. DH owes me big time. Shall I go?!

Still got it.

Raah I was so sure as well

Go ! Go ! Go !

norty, MrsV !

Sorry Raahh.

Not.

ooh, yes-GO!!

(not from the thread, that would be rude)

DH has been told.

Dan's looking a bit defeated poor lad.

I think he's realised how far British tennis is behind even the Old Boy of the game.

Bless him.

going

If Rafa was there I'd have gone up there tonight to queue.

As it is, he's not (sob) and realistically I can't.

Now. Will they announce the conclusion of Novak's whooping ?

Fed wins.

What's the forecast for Sunday? What if it ends up with only play on centre?
Better than nowt, I suppose.

See- 5-2 to Fed in the 3rd.

Querrey could easily have finished off Djok before 11.What a waste
Meanwhile, Djok will be re-booting.

(I don't actually dislike Djok as much as I dislike others, but his winning streak is boring).

GET NOVAK OUT ! GET NOVAK OUT !

And Fed has won because I type slower than my dog

I love that Federer waited for Evans. He really is a gentleman.
