Tennis: waltzing into winter

[JaneJeffer]

Oh I missed the beginning, didn't realise they had blown a fuse!

I know- Dom who?

And I am not letting Tim forget how scathing he was about Dom and his 'clay game' during London a couple of years back, either. .

Tim is looking very smart today.

Andrew looks like he's spilt orange juice down his shirt.

I like Rublev- I would like him to win a match at least.

I haven't seen much of Rublev. I think he's a bit of an inelegant player from what I've seen. Limbs flying everywhere

He is quite gangly.

And noisy!

Volley chat alert

It's hard to know what to make of this match really, since it's really a 'dead' rubber. Dom has qualified, and Rublev is really ust playing for pride. So, is Dom really giving it everything, or conserving himself?

ooh- group standings chat. .

And AC has now fulfilled his contractual obligation for the day by getting Murray into the conversation. .

Aww, Jo Willy. I miss watching players like him- seems like ages since I last saw him play.

You couldn't beat eggs

He looks like he's been locked up for a long time makes him sound like a criminal

These slow lorises are really cute but I need to get up off my arse and get to the supermarket.

I saw the slow lorises too- and also had to go out . DD2 needed fresh air .

I wish they woud get on with it- I might end up falling asleep .

Me too! Oh here they are finally!

My laptop is not playing ball tonight.

Still wittering about volleys.

Well they have just jinxed Rafa.

Dannii thought it was his best chance to win Paris too....

I know it’s getting late - well it feels late anyway!

Come on Rafa!

It does Fizzy - it's been dark here since about 4pm
