I don't know if Raahh is around to start a new thread and I couldn't post on the last one because it's full! Hope you all find this!

Ah yes both of mine used to complain bitterly because the girls Gaelic team was always winning and the boys wasn't Grin

Grin
JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 16:44

Zverev has a break of serve.

Love Gulbis. The Guardian described him as "the Latvian dandy" Grin but he has a good and to watch when he's in the mood!

Raahh seriously, twitter is good and if I can work out how to use it anyone can. I only follow tennis and film stuff, avoid all the political crap etc (mostly).

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 16:53

There seems to be a lot of viciousness on Twitter. I'm too scared to join.

So England are through. Well done to them.

Sorry for the illiterate last post. I don't even know what I was trying to say!

Raahh · 07/07/2018 16:58

Private Grin

I think I got the gist.

Gulbis has had some great results over the years- but then not been able to back them up. He does seem to be one of those who loses to himself.

PrivateParkin · 07/07/2018 17:03

Jane you're right - some of it is awful. But you can avoid it eg by muting words you don't want to see (eg Brexit Grin)
On the plus side you can see thing like this, posted by Portuguese journalist Jorge Viale (a good person to follow for anyone on there)

WIMBLEDON PART TWO!!
JaneJeffer · 07/07/2018 17:08

There's a Gaelic match on so it's my turn in the kitchen. No red button so I have to watch Djok/Edmund now Angry

Kerber won her match. Yay!

Zverev won the second set.

People i my house have demanded feeding.

And there are still talky bits about the football, apparently Hmm.

BagelGoesWalking · 07/07/2018 17:19

That's true, Jane, I'd forgotten. Kerber won her match with perfect timing to allow Kyle to see the end of the England match! I am happy for them, they seem like a decent bunch of lads (in interviews after).

DramaAlpaca · 07/07/2018 17:22

Jane do you have Sky? You can manually programme in the Red Button channel - you'd have to google the frequencies though. Gulbis match is on there now.

DH would be watching GAA if it was hurling, but he's not too bothered about football.

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:29

Aww, Private lovely picture Grin

Juan looks like a little boy.

A very tall one.

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:33

And Foggy is out.

Yes, very good timing for Kyle.

He could stand a good chance in this match.

Loved the interview between Novak and Boris before- I got the impression they didn't really part on the best of terms, good to see they can put that behind them

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:34

I'm watching the end of the Gulbis match though, for now.

Fizzywinegum · 07/07/2018 17:38

I’ve managed to get WiFi but not seen any tennis yet Sad. We’ve just been out to watch England match (thanks DH and DS x2) they were about to put Edmund match on so could be a possible place to get my Rafa fix (I am in Mallorca after all!)

Looking forward to keeping up with you all Smile

ferrier · 07/07/2018 17:38

It's been a bad day at the tennis. Fabio and Simona out. At least England won.
Let's hope Kyle and Kei cheer me up.

GrouchyKiwi · 07/07/2018 17:41

Hi all. I have spent all day tidying up the children's bedrooms but finally have a chance to sit down and watch Edmund break Djokovic!

Raahh I'm impressed that your jinxing of players continues unabated. Grin

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:47

Grouchy Sad

I know!

It's the only result I'm sad about though- the rest of the day has been quite excellent Grin

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:48

Fizzy I would be very disappointed if nowhere in Mallorca showed a Rafa match Grin.

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:49

Kyle appears to be slowly doing his job well.

Raahh · 07/07/2018 17:57

Every time I turn over, Djok is doing annoying gestures.

Stop it.

Fizzywinegum · 07/07/2018 17:58

Me too Fizzy I expected wall to wall rafa as well!

Fizzywinegum · 07/07/2018 17:59

Oops sorry Raahh I’m fizzy!
