I liked the way Andy kept calling Foggy "mate" when they were bickering Grin

I have a bad feeling about this. Foggy is looking ominous Sad

Raahh · 08/10/2019 15:06

Private we used to have loos like that on the streets hear. You paid 10p, and the door shut behind you, and they play music. They were timed though, and used to scare me.

The last time I remember using one, was the morning of my driving test, March 1990.

The song playing in it was 'My brave face' by Paul McCartney. Which was ironic. Grin.

I'll never forget that Grin.

Grin Grin
That's hilarious Raahh. Love it!

I wonder how they select the songs for the toilets?!

Bugger!

Not a popular win in the arena.

Can't believe Andy is still wittering on to Fergus!

Raahh · 08/10/2019 15:12

It freaked me out, Private and I never went near one again, no matter how desperate I got Grin.

PrivateSpidey · 08/10/2019 15:16

kazza no I can't - although he's right in that it was a hindrance I reckon.

Raahh Grin

I would love to stay and think of suitable songs for those loos but unfortunately, I have to make a start on cleaning my own ones now. Thirty minutes is all I have before school pick up!

As always, it's been fun - apart from the tennis score, that is.

Raahh · 08/10/2019 15:42

See, this is where we need the Canadian dj, and his 'Songs for all occasions' playlist. Grin.

I have been having a look at the schedule, and Murray appears to be on there for Antwerp (next week?) whether he still goes or not, we will see. I suppose it will depend on whether he feels he wants the matches - or to just put his feet up for the rest of the year.

PrivateSpidey · 08/10/2019 15:50

I was thinking that Raahh - there was a lot on the line for Fabio there because he can still qualify for London (I think?) whereas Andy just needs matches. I have thought he would play Antwerp but who knows.

Still laughing about "My Brave Face" Grin

kazza you may be struck by musical inspiration while cleaning the loos - let us know if so Grin

'Go Where You Wanna Go' by The Mamas and the Papas

Or is that lowering the standards a bit too much? HmmGrin

JaneJeffer · 08/10/2019 17:43

That's the problem living in a house full of men kazza they do exactly that Angry

Just catching up on the toilet talk Grin

Those toilet cubicles on the street used to freak me out Raahh - I always imagined the doors opening while I was mid wee! I don’t think ours played music though!

I bet the Australian Open are regretting that premature Andy “obituary” video now.

Raahh · 08/10/2019 18:58

Fizzy oh, the loo opening mid wee was a big fear of mine too!

And that premature retirement /obituary video will haunt whoever's put it together forever. Grin

Raahh · 08/10/2019 19:02

If there is a song called 'slam the toilet seat in the middle of the night and wake your mother ' then that is ds's theme tune. He cannot use the bathroom quietly. Or without turning on all the lights and slamming all the doors.

And I am the only one who it bothers. Hmm

PrivateSpidey · 08/10/2019 19:07

Grin sorry Raahh that did make me laugh!

Sounds like it would make a catchy tune Grin

Has anyone watched any more of Shanghai? I'm just watching Fed v Goffin at the mo - and logged on here to say how well David was playing, at which point it started to go a bit wrong.

The Fed love-in is off the charts - the commentators have just described his play as "sumptuous" Hmm

That's a word that belongs on those annoying M&S food ads and nowhere near tennis, IMHO.

Goffin has had heaps of set points but you just know Fed is going to come through.
