Very much in the Cilic camp here, quite aside from my £10 bet on him of courseGrin

I am psyching myself up to doing the ironing. I can't be bothered. But I don't want to do it later.

McEnroe is on desert island discs now if anyone's interested and like me,loves the sound of his voice

Raahh · 16/07/2017 12:47

The 'oldies' doubles is funny. Half the crowd have left just as they are about to play the match tie break, Jacco Eltingh was trying to get them to stay Grin

Mark Petchey nearly lost his ,er, balls... thenGrin

Boris, mac and cash singing was very weird! Settled on the sofa now - might treat myself to a pimms later (well Aldi version) - just want a nice competive, long match

Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:09

Usually Boris looks the scruffiest of the group- but he's smartened up today, in his Wimbledon tie, and Andrew Castle looks like his hair is made of shredded wheat Grin.

But oh my god- are they going to be this biased all the way through?

Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:10

The singing was bizarre , fizzy Grin

I like Aldi Pimms.
our nearest Aldi is closed for 2 months for refurbishments. This makes me sad.

Yes according to them Federer's won it already - Marin might as well not bother turning up - what has happened to Andrew castles hair??

GrouchyKiwi · 16/07/2017 13:11

Thanks to irritating scheduling, I'll be watching the British Grand Prix for the first part of the match. At least it's not Andy in the final. Wink

Very pleased for Muguruza yesterday, though we didn't watch the match as we were out.

Fizzywinegum · 16/07/2017 13:12

I would be sad if our Aldi closed for 2 months

Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:13

Grouchy I would actually be considering not watching Shock if it was Federer and Murray in the final. And that's unheard of. The fawning of this lot would be way too much. Who would they support then?? The commentators would explode. Grin

Rafa can be an unexpected item in my bagging area, any time he likes.

Fizzy yup, they have already engraved the trophy Hmm

And Andrew's hair is very distracting, shredded wheat, with way too much Silvikrin. Maybe he was expecting it to be windy? Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 16/07/2017 13:28

Heh, Raahh, I'm glad you've been spared that. Grin

Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:36

Goran ! Grin

OP posts:
Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:37

Ahh, Queen's when it was still the Stella Artois, I still miss the red and white.

OP posts:
BringMeTea · 16/07/2017 13:38

Goran is so very very hot. Come on Marin!

Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:39

Aww, Marin you are a lovely person!

OP posts:
Raahh · 16/07/2017 13:39

And we just saw him without his shirt. Which is a bonus.

I love Goran. So dry.

OP posts:
Fizzywinegum · 16/07/2017 13:43

I love Goran - was so happy when he won Wimbledon. Cilic has got nice eyes and seems like a very nice person.

I've liked him for a while so pleased that he's got to the final

right, settling in - just finished the ironing. DH watching F1 on the TV , me with Bose headphones on the laptop, until F1 finishes , ready to go!
