Tennis - waiting for Australian Open

[magimedi]

And longing for lots of chat!!

I have a leak under my kitchen sink and it's not annoying me as much as Djokovic is and I can't even see him!

Well, he's got off to a good start.

But he did last set.

Come on Sascha!

Jane

He is driving me nuts.

Just sitting down to watch - come on Sascha ! I really don’t think they should be allowed to smash racquets - they’re adults FFS not toddlers!

I’m not convinced by Sascha’s sleeveless look

Yes Sascha’s just broken - Djok just managed to stop himself from whacking the ball in anger

Fizzy I almost wish he would- seeing him defaulted from the tournament would make my day.
Sascha has taken to trying toeat his racquet.

I don't like the sleeveless top much- reminds me of basketball players and Kyrgios- and really only suits players with proper muscles (like Mmoh) and the colour is too pale.

In short, I don't like it. .

I'm listening on aoradio now. It just occurred to me that it was probably on radio somewhere!

They're talking about ice cream flavours

Come on Sascha!!

Well, my favourite is pistachio. Once went all over Manchester to try and get some.

Was very disappointed when I eventually got some (my childhood memories of icecream on a holiday in Mallorca, shattered). .

This set could be deja vu.

Shite

I think they must get very bored on the radio - whenever I listen they seem to be having very random conversations

Boo!

I like raspberry ripple . Ice cream always tastes nicer abroad!

Fizzy ooh, I like Raspberry ripple too.

I don't like chocolate. But, I am one of those odd people who doesn't really like chocolate anything much.

My mum's favourite has always been rum and raisin- you don't seem to be able to get that anywhere, these days.

Maybe we should be on the radio

Rum and raisin - nooo! There’s a park near us that still does run and raisin ice cream - they also do Bakewell tart flavour which is nice - could just eat one now!

ooh- I could just eat some nice ice cream now.
I'm trying to distract myself from the fact Djok is probably going to win this.

I was hoping they would wrap this up before 'Doctors' (or I risk mixing up the threads).

If it goes to a 5th it might not be over.

Won't complain, if it means Sascha wins though.

There's a lovely Italian ice cream place in Galway. The last time I was there an American came in asking for coffee and the Italian woman just looked at her and said this is an ice cream shop in the most scathing way

Jane

Come on Sascha! (Although I still think that Djok will win - hope I’m proved wrong)

Oh the injury is a niggle now

They're talking about rum and raisin now thanks to a woman from London who got in touch with them

Fizzy yes, it was a big thing that was definitely a tear the other day (when it looked like he was out of the tournament).

Now it's nothing. .

Jane

So funny.

Will the niggle become a tear again if he starts to lose, I wonder?

Come on Sascha!

What is he moaning at now?

even the fact his wrist bands don't match is irritating me .
