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!

So Delpo has had the trainer.

And now seems to be falling apart a bit.

Maybe it will go dark and he can go in and re-group.

(I've nothing against Gilles, he's played in some great matches over the years, but I really want Delpo to win) Grin

I really want Simon to win. Even though he has less chance than delPo against Rafa. I don't know why I've gone off delPo - I uses to like him when he first came back from injury. Maybe it's the commentators banging on about it every time.

Delighted for Kei though as usual he has an injury.

Really hate Federer's half of the draw. Isner Anderson Raonic. All huge servers and not a lot else (though I quite like Raonic as a personality). Really kills the game imo. And Federer historically does not like the big servers so from now on none of his games will be either easy or particularly entertaining. At least the Nadal Federer rivalry is a good match up.

I'm just not used to seeing Azarenka in a skirt. It looks weird.
Hev and Henri are through in a tough three sets.

kazzaD66 · 09/07/2018 21:54

Great comeback from Azarenka and Murray. We saw them last Friday, so now have a bit of a soft spot for them!

BagelGoesWalking · 10/07/2018 00:00

Don't know what was going on with DelPo, he's usually so amiable.

PrivateParkin · 10/07/2018 07:36

Maybe he was ill Bagel - or dehydrated or something? The doctor gave him some tablets for something. It was a weird third set - especially the end of it when that shot landed right on the line - wonder why Delpo didn't even have a swing at it?

Raahh · 10/07/2018 11:45

At the hospital for me today, not the one I usually go to( which is conveniently pretty much round the corner) so I nearly got lost. But I have no sense of direction.Grin.I've been several times before. I'm just useless.

so no chance of any tennis til I dont know when. But I'm hoping I'm out of here for the school run!

PrivateParkin · 10/07/2018 12:53

Hope you're ok Raahh. Do you need waffly updatesâ„¢?!

PrivateParkin · 10/07/2018 12:54

I fancy an upset in the women's QFs today. Not exactly a bold prediction this fortnight I know!

PrivateParkin · 10/07/2018 12:55

I see Djokovic has requested to play his QF on Centre...

PrivateParkin · 10/07/2018 13:40

Ah Kasatkina has broken back. Cracking player, just so so different from most other players. Love Angie too though. Am already hoping this one goes to three sets!

And I also like Ostapenko. Despite all the upsets, I reckon these are pretty good match-ups.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2018 14:32

Looks like the end for Cibulkova.

And DelPotro is through. Lovely smile from Giles at the end. He's very pretty.

Kasatkina/Kerber is excellent!

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2018 14:37

Come on Angelique!

afternoon! sorry was at my kidney stone appointment. With no proper.wifi. still got to go for a scan - back at the previous hospital!
So came home, and I have a horrible headache- so I fell asleep. good thing the dog has just woken me up or my dc would have wondered where I had got up to.

Raahh · 10/07/2018 14:54

but yay! for Del po!

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2018 15:01

He's playing Rafa next though Raahh!

We are in Manchester - have come to see Paul Simon tonight.

Am looking at my Wimbledon app to see what’s been going on

whatnextfred · 10/07/2018 15:35

Rafa vs Del P. Happy days Grin

PrivateParkin · 10/07/2018 15:36

So Giorgi has taken the first set eh?! Hm for once perhaps one of my predictions will come true?! (Doubt it though.)

Ooh enjoy Paul Simon Miranda. We saw S&G at Hyde Park in ?2005 - absolutely amazing. Am jealous!!

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2018 15:50

Have a great time Miranda. The Graceland album always reminds me of doing my Leaving Cert. Love a bit of S&G too.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2018 16:29

Come on Camile!

OP posts:
Raahh · 10/07/2018 16:43

at Miranda from Manchester.

Weather still good up here. The concert is at the Arena, isn't it? I think an ex-work colleague of mine is going.

Even though it was released a few years before, the Graceland album reminds me of my first year at university. I had that, and 'Solitude Standing' by Suzanne Vega on the other side of a mix tape Grin.

MirandaWest · 10/07/2018 16:43

I see Serena has gone through
