Wimbledon 2016: Week Two.

[GrouchyKiwi]

Boring title; hope the tennis is better!

Well done Andy! I'm glad it didn't go on too long, he can save his energy for a nail-biting final!

So...Murray and Raonic. I am on holiday for it of course - abroad. Wonder if there'll be any way to watch it? Might have to hunt down a bar showing the match!

right, I need Canadian nibbles and beveridges for Sunday. I have maple syrup.

Deffo search out a bar NewCross. I love watching major sporting events in a bar in sunny climes... (apols if you're somewhere rainy and cold).

Well done Andy & Raonic. Should be a good final.

Half of those lip reader things made no sense.

Maple syrup & bacon dip for crisps?
Maple syrup glazed carrot sticks?
Maple syrup & pecan tarts?

I quite fancy being a tennis WAG. I wonder which of the top players I could interest in the proposition?

Was looking up Raonic to see if he might want to take SpaceUnicorn up on her offer and found this stunning picture, which might explain his hair gel.

Edberg was supposed to marry me. He just didn't realise it.

I've never got over it

Damnit, he's just outside the 'half your age + 7' bracket. Is there such a thing as 'tennis cougar'?

Got my pimms now . Bit late!

Aww, nothing wrong with curly hair. so long as Mac doesn't have him wearing dodgy headbands.

Having failed to marry a tennis player, and having also failed to get any of my 4 dc to become world class players, and having failed to convince my dd to stalk get to know Pot - can I rely on you Space to be my "in"?! After you've found a suitable player to marry of course!

Roger was really not very happy about losing that match. Never seen him so regretful I don't think.

Wikipedia doesn't know if Isner is attached, and he's 31, so you might have a chance there. Plus you know he's got good stamina.

Boris was supposed to be mine. I totally still would.

Oh Raahh, I feel your pain.

Marat Safin was meant to marry me, but he must have forgotten

None of mine are interested in tennis either. Not that I could afford lessons.

The Broadies are from Stockport, but I don't think they are A list enough to guarantee me VIP access to Wimbledon.

I'll give it a go, though I'm not sure I can last 11 hours!

Ooh, Marat. He's one of my top 4 all time favourite players.

I met Pete Sampras in a hotel in Amsterdam when we were both 16. He was no Stefan.

For sure. Once I become Mrs SpaceUnicorn Isner there'll be centre court tickets for all of you!

But at least you know he gets new balls on a regular basis

I'm not telling any of you who my tennis crush was as a teenager, because you will laugh me off the thread.

Sorry - that was to SpaceUnicorn's comment about lasting 11 hours!

Oh I forgot about the Brodys. Ds was at uni with Liam's girlfriend and met him a couple of times. Then they stopped seeing each other. Bloody foiled again.
