I remember AC waffling on for at least 10 minutes after the match ended.

He's so much more than an idiot Raahh
(And none of it is complementary!)

I haven't had a Pimms yet this summer!
Shocking.
I must rectify it Grin
Or maybe an Aperol Spritz Grin

DS finished (home) school today. He goes into the Sixth Form in September. They wear smart business wear rather than school uniform in the Sixth Form, so we'll need to go shopping for suits and tailored trousers Hmm We ordered a couple of blazers and shirts online in the sales the ot week but not looking forward to going out to shop with him. He'll have to try suits on though because he's 6'2" but skinny as a rake. Nightmare!

He has also been warned that he is not going to spend the next 6 or 7 weeks sitting in his bedroom on his devices, all day every day Hmm

First glimpse of Stefan- and he's just a spectator.

I really am very angry that a two time Wimbledon champion, former no.1, fabulous grass court player in the great tradition of serve and volley (with a backhand down the line to die for) and all round lovely bloke is being bloody ignored by the BBC Angry

Raahh · 10/07/2020 16:59

kazza they have been away from 'school' now for so long. It feels like ages since March.

I'm very laissez faire about devices.

Raahh · 10/07/2020 17:02

kazza me too. I knew these programmes would focus on the same names, but I did hope they would be a bit more rounded. The fact he coached Fed, the finals they played when Boris coached Djok. I thought at least that would be mentioned! (But that would mean focussing too much on Fed losses, I guess).

I'm a terrible parent when it comes to devices Blush.

DD2 is almost part of the sofa.

But she has done a reasonable amount of work inbetween roblox.

Maybe he's ignoring them kazza!They seem to mention the same people all the time. At least Agassi got a look in this year.

Raahh · 10/07/2020 17:06

Her teacher thinks she is doing great. Grin

Ugh. He is doing arm things. And eating grass. It probably cures him of all sorts.

Aww the twins.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2020 17:12

Djok's speech was lovely.

Raahh · 10/07/2020 17:12

Little Stefan is very cute.

takes after his mother

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2020 17:13

I think Stefan looks like his grandad.

Fizzywinegum · 10/07/2020 17:14

Little Stefan looks like his grandad

Raahh · 10/07/2020 17:15

So, he looks like his grandad?

Snap Jane Grin

I didn’t want to add to the confusion with people thinking I meant Stefan Edberg! I’ve still not got over the Boris confusion Grin

Fizzywinegum · 10/07/2020 17:16

Yes you’re outnumbered Raahh Grin

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2020 17:16

I've already had Stefan confusion earlier in the non-tournament Grin

Fizzywinegum · 10/07/2020 17:17

Sorry I thought you meant he looks like Djok’s mum - now I’m confusing myself Confused

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2020 17:18

Djok doesn't loo like either of his parents.

JaneJeffer · 10/07/2020 17:19

*look. I know nothing of his toilet habits!
