Tennis: Wimbledon Week 1

[JaneJeffer]

Ha ha nice one Daniil

I like Daniil's interviews.

Oh no poor Marin - went out for dinner and Marin was 2 sets up and now he’s lost

It was definitely the flossing with Carol that did for him Raahh - he’s never been the same since

DH is realising that I’m not a good football watching companion - I didn’t really know who England were playing (and I just want to watch tennis!)

Those crisps look nice Jane (bacon wheaty things sound nice as well!) I’m happily full of tapas (and wine!)

@JaneJeffer they sound lovely!! I have a bit of a crisp addiction but haven't tried those, may have to add them to this week's shopping list 😁

Oh I like him, he's very charming isn't he?

Tapas sound nice too Fizzy.

DS2 came in and nicked the rest off me.

I’ve just tried to be enthusiastic about England scoring 3 goals but it’s not really happening

How about four Fizzy?

Meh Jane

Mondays order of play is looking good!

There will be some great women's matches.

To tide anyone over until Monday - if you type Wimbledon into Google and scroll along the tournament headings and click the tennis ball, you can play a pixelated game of tennis

@BunnyBerries, thanks ! I just had a game. I lost the first game and am now injured. Have called for the trainor!!

@BunnyBerries thank you! I called for the trainer as well, but my opponent doesn't believe I'm injured!

I hope you all have your good looking boyfriends / partners or whatever's cheering you on ( or looking sulky like Nicks one did yesterday ) whilst playing virtual tennis.

@the80sweregreat, I was going to get my act together and clean the house but am too busy playing tennis. My OH has just started on the kitchen. I have never loved him more 💔

I'm already hooked. Finally have something to keep me occupied on No Wimbledon Day of Self Isolation

Just catching up on all that happened yesterday.

Loving the suggestions for potential names for Henman Hill Evans Erection

Because of Round the Island, didn't see any tennis but a good day anyway. DS's boat won the Young Sailors trophy in their class 🏆and finished in 8 hours. Very proud

I could probably find lots to do - certainly the dog needs to go out (but he's taken one look at the rain and gone back to bed).

But I can't be bothered .
I did do a huge mountain of ironing yesterday.

DD1 is back in school after nearly 2 weeks off isolating. (For the 6th time) I've convinced myself they will probably send her home again by lunctime, knowing her school.

Raducanu's ridge.
Tim is probably sitting having a sandwich in the workers shed going ' grrr ' and muttering about the change of name of his hill. How very dare they! It's mine

That's fantastic kazza you must be so proud!

80s I remember reading once that when there was a suggestion that the hill be re-named after Murray, since he was more successful- Tim replied that since Murray had the slams, at the very least, he got to keep the Hill, .

Great news kazza! My friend is on holiday on the island atm. She was watching it all yesterday from Ryde.
Raahh, hope your dd can carry on until the end of school now.

Tim is a very gracious player at times isn't he?
Must hurt never to have won a slam though

I agree with Tim raahh

I've got a ticket for Women's Final day. Yay! Hope Radicanu's still in.

80s I have everything crossed. It's 2 weeks. How hard can it be? .
