No Tennis No Cry

[JaneJeffer]

We can do this!

I think Rafa was in his prime years when he won Queens that year looking at the pictures

I think Rafa last played at Queen's in 2015(?)- he lost to Dolgopolov (Whatever happened to Dogs??) in the first round. He was not having a good year that year. He has attempted a come back every year since, and it hasn't happened.

I was really looking forward to Rafa's match in 2015, I remember. Was so disappointed when he lost.

Dh took me and the girls out to see The Minions movie .

It's turned really hot here now.

Yes, bloody football is back! DH is a Crystal Palace fan (someone has to be, I suppose ) so he's going to watch that tonight as it's on the BBC.
Great!

Yes I remember Rafa not having a very good run at Queens Raahh - not sure if I’d be too impressed if DH took me to see Minions film to cheer me up

I’m fed up of the football already kazza - DS1 was telling me that someone had dressed their Labrador in our team’s shirt and got it made into a cardboard cutout to go in the crowd

BBC2 @ 4pm today is Andy Murray @ Queens

Just reminding y'all in case some of you think its Wedmonsday

magi I have given up on days now.

It is 'the day I wear the t shirt that doesn't look as creased as all the others because I'm only walking the dog and no one will be looking at me anyway'.

Thanks for the reminder magi. I have forgotten what Sir Andy at Queen's is about though! I know it's Sunday because DH is here annoying me.

Jane I think that is part of the problem- Dh is always here now, and has been since the middle of March.

I am losing the will to live. Everytime I move, someone questions what I am doing. Just ....go away!!

The working from home thing looks set to continue, for a while at least, because he can.
Brilliant.

I really enjoyed that. Watching Andy win makes me happy

I haven’t watched it yet Jane but have recorded it for later.

We’ve decided to ahead with the BBQ - it’s a bit chilly and windy and the DSs are in charge of the food - slightly worried

good luck

It's fairly nice here but a bit windy.

Hope the barbecue goes well Fizzy!

I've recorded the Andy programme as well. Looking forward to watching.

I see that Dimitrov has tested positive for Covid 19.

I've recorded the Murray documentary aswell. Can't believe it was a year ago that I spent all afternoon watching Feli win both titles!

Grigor has tested positive? Surely that will worry Djok and the people involved in his 'we're alright Jack' tour?

I hope he is ok.

Oh dear. Hope he's ok and all the others who were in contact with him.

Mind you, I also read that prior to Belgrade, Djok was at a Basket ballgame where one of the team tested positive.

No idea if he had contact with the player in question, but he did with others.

It's all a bit nuts.

Oh dear that does sound worrying - hope that Grigor and everyone else is OK.

Apparently, the final of Djok's tournament was cancelled because of the news and Grigor has told all those he has been in contact with to get tested. It looks like he's taken a bit of flak on SM for playing in the tournaments and partying last weekend aswell

Djok is a cock - that tournament looked so wrong.

Watched the Andy Murray documentary & it made me feel a bit sad for all the tennis we are missing this year.

Half way through my lovely neighbour rang. She & her brother lived throught the Blitz in the East End - puts all my moaning to shame when she tells tales of her (older) brother who had to go out & find food - aged 6 - while mum stayed at home with the baby (my neighbour).

Maybe Djok is a super spreader!

Djok is definitely a cock.

An anti vaxxer. Not surprising that ‘his’ event was so piss poor in terms of covid precautions and social distancing! He thinks the power of his breathing can alter virus molecules or some such shit!

I think it made the players involved look tone deaf about the pandemic.
“ oh we’re young and fit athletes, we’ll be fine..”
So disrespectful to everyone else around them. The tennis event itself was bad enough, but they flooded social media with the football match, the shirtless basketball and the nightclub partying and limboing , FFS.

I hope Dimitrov recovers. I equally hope he hasn’t infected anyone else. I think the USTA will be going bonkers as this will inevitably bring about more questions and concern about the US Open going ahead.

Starks I agree it did all look really wrong - I was at all the crowds sat together and the players shaking hands, hugging etc.

Although Serbia and Croatia seem to have had few cases and have apparently eased restrictions the players involved were still from different countries - it did all look a bit tone deaf and yes Djok is definitely a (monumental) cock!

Hope that Grigor is OK and no one else has been affected.

Grigor flew in from the USA for the tournament & in the past few weeks has, allegedly, been in Serbia, Bulgaria, Croatia and France. Coric has also tested positive.

What a load of utter fools, all of them should be put up for the Darwin Awards.

In shock news I’m in agreement with Kyrgios - he has described the decision to go ahead with the Adria cup as bone-headed - I have to say I agree with him!
