Fizzy thanks for the viewing tips for the day - that's my afternoon sorted. Can't beat a bit of Peter Davison!

Fizzywinegum · 07/07/2019 10:07

Thought you’d appreciate that Private Wink

PrivateIsles · 07/07/2019 10:13

Grin you know me too well!

Raahh · 07/07/2019 10:15

I was pregnant with dd2 when I went to see Toy Story 3, so that's my excuse for crying through the last 20 minutes. Grin.

I think I'm off to see Spiderman. Not my thing, but dd2 has recently become a bit of a convert to the Marvel thing, can't convince ds to come along. Grin.

Finally caught up on the last thread.
Raahh someone collapsed during Kukushkin's match (it's only taken me a full day to answer your question)

This is what Wimbledon said

"A 60-year-old female collapsed while watching tennis on Court 12.

She received immediate medical attention and was successfully resuscitated before being transported to a local hospital.
Play was suspended and the court evacuated to give appropriate space for treatment."

Hope she's ok. anyway it doesn't seem to have affected Kukushkin's concentration.

PrivateIsles · 07/07/2019 10:34

Struff put out a nice tweet about the spectator - really hope she's ok, how awful Sad

Spiderman was good Raahh - quite funny (and Jake Gyllenhall).

Raahh · 07/07/2019 10:46

Private I like Jake.

Right. I must do something. I need to sort out the ironing, especially if I have to go out.

Getting dressed at some stage would be useful too Grin.

Fizzywinegum · 07/07/2019 18:21

Oh Stan Grin

I’ve managed to rearrange things tomorrow so will be able to watch tennis - yay! It looks a pretty packed day coming up.

I was reading an interview with Martina and she said that when it’s Wimbledon everything stops and Mothers forget to feed their kids - she must have been following this thread Smile

JaneJeffer · 07/07/2019 18:31

I was reading an interview with Carole Middleton and she said "Who sits around on a sofa?" That would be me Carole. Although I managed to prise myself off it today but I'll make up for that from tomorrow onwards.

Fizzywinegum · 07/07/2019 18:43

Grin Jane

I’ve also been a bit more active today - I’ve cleaned the house. I was rumbled by His Lordship though who commented that I was only doing it today so I can sit on the settee all day tomorrow (if course!).

Raahh · 07/07/2019 18:44

Yup, it started when I was a child and my usually super house proud mother would let things slip a bit during Wimbledon.

No where need to the extent I do , I will hasten to add, and the desire to live in a show home was not hereditary. But our love of tennis remains.

I love Martina, despite her annoying habit of handing the trophy to Serena before the tournament has even got going.Grin

As for Carole M- I'm very happy on my sofa.
I leave it to pick up the dc from school and walk the dog. I even sleep on it snoring dh Grin

I gave my DH the heads up that today's burst of housekeeping was only because there was no Wimbledon on and that I would be doing sweet FA for the remainder of the week.

PrivateIsles · 07/07/2019 19:15

That would be me Carole Grin

Carole - you don't know what you're missing Grin

Good work with your rearranging of tomorrow Fizzy!

Raahh glad you enjoyed Spiderman - I think the Mysterio character is one for the adults Grin

Raahh · 07/07/2019 19:19

Oh he is, Private definitely. Wink

Liking tomorrow’s order of play - might even have to have the tv & my kindle showing two matches at some points of the day! Grin

bizzey · 07/07/2019 21:12

Wierd day today for me !
I felt very "twitchy" without my Wimbledon fix !
Dc's back tomorrow..so I errmm well
I caught up on on the t.v i missed last week !!
Thanks for the heads up on the John McEnroe programme.
It was very interesting.
I was a teen at the time so forgot how "bad" his outbursts were.
Though I may have just blocked them ad I was so in love with him !!😂😂

bizzey · 07/07/2019 21:14

Beds have been changed and stairs hoovered .
I have mot made any mess on my own !

PrivateIsles · 07/07/2019 21:14

colourless yep same! I'm surprised they've got Konta-Kvitova and Halep-Gauff scheduled at pretty much the same time.

I'm looking forward to Goffin-Verdasco as well and of course Rafa. And Raonic-Pella could be good. But not sure about many of the other matches tbh...

Raahh · 07/07/2019 21:26

It's a big day tomorrow.

I have spent the afternoon (since the cinema) catching up on some of Stranger Things with DD1. I didn't feel inclined to do anything much. Am just catching up with the Mac documentary now.
