Funny how quickly you forget the stuff that happened early on.

God, that booing for Cameron was awful. I'm no fan of his, but hell, his elderly mother was beside him. Way to lower the tone, Wimbledon crowd.

Well done Andy! Tennis

He played SO well.

And I really like Milos & am sure he'll be winning slams soon.

Got tomorrow to throw stuff together & then off to see PFGD (& her parents Grin ). So glad as I feel so flat post Wimbledon.

We'll have to have a new thread for the Olympics!

And I miss you lot, as well as the tennis.

magi- have a lovely trip to see PFGD.

I will continue to waffle on the thread. This is always an odd time, due to the time differences of tournaments. But we will get extra with the Olympics.

GrouchyKiwi · 10/07/2016 17:44

Have a lovely visit, magi

When's the US Open?

Last week of August, usually, unless they have to put it back for the Olympics.

Raahh · 10/07/2016 17:53

Come on Heather.

OVER THE NET

DramaAlpaca · 10/07/2016 17:55

Enjoy your visit magi.

GrouchyKiwi · 10/07/2016 17:55

Thanks Creme.

Am watching the doubles and finding it hard to adjust to the wider court.

"Kontinen and Miss Watson lead..." I really would like to see that title gone.

Just double checked and it starts the 29th August, which I think is a Bank Holiday Monday for us in the UK.

Come on Heather and Henry!

Hearts when is your big move happening? I know it's soon. Hope it goes very well and best wishes for an exciting new life Smile

Isn't the pineapple from the days when it was so rare that only royalty had them growing in glasshouses (when it was very expensive to have glass) or I might have just dreamed up that theory...

Always wonder about the French plaits and the applications, they're great, aren't they?!

Go Heather and Henri!!

It's been lovely having this thread, hope you do one for the Olympics. Have a great summer, everyone

JuanPotatoTwo · 10/07/2016 19:11

magi enjoy your time with gd, and Hearts, hope your move goes well.

I'm dealing with the post Wimbledon let-down with gin. Which is acceptable tonight I think, but what about the rest of the week?!

hugoagogo · 10/07/2016 19:17

Hooray for Heather and Henri! I've never seen anyone have so much fun playing professional sport. Grin Tennis

Iwantacampervan · 10/07/2016 19:18

Well done Heather and Henri.

CremeEggThief · 10/07/2016 19:19

Well played Heather and Henri. You shall go to the ball!Smile

BagelGoesWalking · 10/07/2016 19:26

Very happy for Heather and Henri (glad she won some money to pay that excessive fine)

GrouchyKiwi · 10/07/2016 19:28

I can't believe they'd never played a tournament together before this week! What a cool story.

Great year for Britain at Wimbledon. Smile

I wonder if they'll deduct it out of her winnings!Smile

CremeEggThief · 10/07/2016 19:33

OMG, I have never seen Ivan so relaxed, if anyone is watching this interview with him and Jamie on BBC 2! How wonderful to see!Grin

Errrmmmm, more gin? Wink

DramaAlpaca · 10/07/2016 19:41

So pleased for Heather & Henri.

I've enjoyed everyone's company on this thread as always. It's lovely to pop in & out every so often & see what's going on. I love that it's one of the friendliest threads on MN and that everyone manages to get along just fine, even though we sometimes have different loyalties.

See you all soon, I hope.

derxa · 10/07/2016 19:43

OMG, I have never seen Ivan so relaxed he is now though I don't think he was during the match which could have turned on a sixpence.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2016 19:51

Lendl smiling is a sight to behold! Was hoping Mac was around for comment Smile

Well said Drama

CremeEggThief · 10/07/2016 19:59

The highlights show is on at 10.50 tonight, so maybe Mac will be on that? He does like to have the last word, after allGrin.

BeJayKayven · 10/07/2016 20:05

Can't wait to see the posh ball outfits. Sportspeople always look so glowingly healthy and gorgeous in their glad rags.
