Nice one Adelie

Raahh · 20/08/2019 16:39

Fantastic, Adelie Grin next everything to saying the man himself, is a tournament named after him!

Raahh · 20/08/2019 16:40

Next best thing...

Stupid auto correct!

kazzaD66 · 20/08/2019 18:22

Djoker balls! Hmm

I see Lee Duck-hee, the South Korean tennis player has become the first deaf player to win an ATP main draw match. It must be so difficult, so well done him.

JaneJeffer · 20/08/2019 18:31

I was reading about him earlier kazza. It must be so difficult.

JaneJeffer · 20/08/2019 19:47

Hmm not sure about this look Domi

Oh, erm.

No. Grin

kazzaD66 · 20/08/2019 20:30

Oh ffs!

I know he's Austrian, but seriously! (See, I can use this argument for various countries, not only BelgiumGrin)

What look do we think he was going for exactly Hmm

Some tennis players just don't seem to know how to dress normally off the court. I'm thinking of Cock in his double denim Confused
Actually, some don't know how to dress on court either, especially if they are dressed by Nike this season or are masquerading as a UPS delivery guy Grin

PrivateIsles · 20/08/2019 20:35

Grin he looks like he should be in an A-ha video!

But having said that, it quite suits him Grin

PrivateIsles · 20/08/2019 20:49

kazza very true. At least Goffin was well-dressed, even if you didn't approve of his dancing Grin

Whereas there's never any excuse for double denim!

I was reading about Lee Duck -Hee as well, brilliant isn't it? Good on him.

JaneJeffer · 20/08/2019 21:04

I fairness to Domi, some magazine made him do it!

kazzaD66 · 20/08/2019 21:43

And forgot to give him the jumper to go underneath the gilet?
Were they having a laugh (at his expense!)Hmm

PrivateIsles · 21/08/2019 08:06

Have just been looking at some of the photos from US Open practice Shock they all look v sweaty as it's really humid there. I wonder if there'll be more ice bath incidents this year?!

Jane I noticed you were on the bad actors thread Grin I had to pipe up to defend Joyce Barnaby!!

Private nobody insults your beloved Midsomer Murders Grin

PrivateIsles · 21/08/2019 15:51

kazzaD66 · 21/08/2019 16:24

There's a bad actors thread!

Where?
Grin

JaneJeffer · 21/08/2019 16:57

Worst acting in a British tv drama goes to.......www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/3670042-Worst-acting-in-a-British-tv-drama-goes-to

PrivateIsles · 21/08/2019 19:19

Of course, Jane and I were only saying nice things Halo

I've just been to the cinema to watch Spiderman yet again! Toy Story is still frowned on by the resident 9 yo Hmm

I spent it mostly "resting my eyes"/perving over Mysterio and reminding myself not to fancy Tom Holland as he's approx 20years younger than me

What was that age rule again magi?!

I think Tom is older than Shaggy anyway Wink

OP posts:
JaneJeffer · 21/08/2019 19:30

It's half your age plus seven years Private. I find it works perfectly for all perving occasions Grin

Imagine me being nice on a thread Grin

PrivateIsles · 21/08/2019 19:36

Jane Grin

Half your age plus seven and then in the general region of that number, that's right isn't it?! Grin

OP posts:
JaneJeffer · 21/08/2019 19:41

That's perfect Private just round it up or down as necessary Grin

kazzaD66 · 21/08/2019 20:39
Grin Jane & private that rule works for me.....just about - it gets harder with each passing year though ConfusedBlush

Might have to look up your bad actors thread aswell Grin

magimedi · 22/08/2019 07:21

That rule is not mine & does not work for me.

A quarter of my age + 7 is more like it Grin

PrivateIsles · 22/08/2019 08:13

Works for me! Grin

OP posts:
PrivateIsles · 22/08/2019 08:16

Your "quarter wage" rule works I mean!
