Happy wedding day to Rafa and Xisca

No Negative face

Thank you for the therad

Happy wedding day!

The shade of blue suit seems popular amongst men at weddings on the continent- where was the wedding they were all dancing at the other week?I'm sure they were all in blue there too.

Pouille's wedding wasn't it Raahh?

Now that was v easy on the eye!...

That's right! Yes, it did look very good.

I'm getting a bit fed u pwith reading a bout how Federer isn't going to be there. Why would he be? It's a bit like the daft rumours that circulated around Djok's wedding- that Murray would be his best man

It is daft. It'd just be like inviting your work colleagues - some people would do that and some wouldn't. You'd just invite the ones you were friends with.

Lol at the thought of Andy being Djok's best man!! Giving a speech and everything

Thanks for the new thread private

Just got in and put the tennis on but not good viewing.

Stan fulfilled his side of the bargain but I don't think Andy is going to match it

Humbert looks about 15 years old but, unfortunately, is not playing like one

Thanks Private. I thought by the time I got back from Tesco you lot would have found a wedding picture somewhere!

I like the ball girl outfits at Antwerp, they look like they are off to a mid nineties night club.

they do have that vibe. They play a lot of Europop during the breaks so I suppose it fits!!

I see Andy made it through. He pointed out the last big match he played against Stan was the 2017 RG semi - things have changed a bit since then. V pleased they're both in the final.

Big match for both of them, really tomorrow.

I can't stay awake. I feel like I have been run over by a truck. I have just slept for an hour and a half.

Is he married yet??

Hope you feel better soon Raahh. Do you think you'll make the X Factor? It's an ordeal at the best of times.

No leaks from the wedding

Hope you can have an early night Raahh

They must be married by now mustn't they - it'd be after 9pm there - although they do things a bit later don't they so maybe not!

Hope they're having a disco right now - Rafa could wear his party shorts (remember those really short shorts with a sort of glittery trim?!)

I just want to see the dress .
She'd look amazing in a bin bag, though.
I don't expect she will be wearing a bin bag.

oh, Rafa and party shorts

He might be onto the speeches.
Aww. It's all lovely.

Jane I am going to try to make X Factor.

I might fall asleep before the end

I'm having an across threads chat with you Raahh

I know- I can't work out where I am- and I'm easily confused.

I will de-camp to X Factor for now.

(But will probably post random rubbish about Simon Cowell on here by mistake).

you two

Here you are

As long as you don’t post about Rafa’s party shorts on the X factor thread Raahh - I think I read somewhere that they were getting married at midday so they should be well into the disco by now!

I want to see a picture!

Nice try Lizzy

I can't believe Murray made it through that match. Humbert was so strong in the second set. I think he mentally unravelled in the decider (thankfully!)

Looking forward to the final. I bet the tournament organisers can't believe their luck, other than having Goffin in there, and he's not a triple GS winner, like Andy and Stan.

I think Stan will win. He had a much shorter match today, which finished mid afternoon. Andy, on the other hand, had a much tougher match, going into the evening and I'm not sure he'll be able to recover sufficiently. He's having trouble with his right elbow, which is obviously aggrevated every time he serves.

Either way, I hope it's a good match.

I didn't see the matches today but Stan has seemed really relaxed throughout the week, which could come in handy tomorrow - although a final is different obviously.

I didn't know Andy had elbow issues today though - hope he recovers ok and we get a good final, but yes a long match and late finish favours Stan (on paper).

It's definitely a pretty good final for a 250 event isn't it, the organisers will be chuffed!

kazza well done for concentrating on the tennis in the middle of wedding mania .

Really pleased for Stan and Andy - I’d be happy for either of them to win.

no photos yet! Boo!

I do not recall these party shorts! Anyone got a link?

Anyway, looking forward to finals. Shapo anyone? Can't watch that one but you know what, Stan and Andy should be good. Yes organisers well chuffed. Event much better attended than China thankfully - should be full house.
