Did Djok eat the grass? I turned over at pretty much match point (to avoid the 'celebration') and turned back to see Matteo's speech, so I didn't notice.

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:35

And the fact Djok kept kissing the trophy so much gave me the willies- in these covid times it should not be encouraged Grin hoicks bosom- and some one has probably had to scrub it now with domestos.

JaneJeffer · 11/07/2021 19:35

He did indeed.

Fizzywinegum · 11/07/2021 19:36

I think a Judy party would be more interesting than an Andy party!

The isolation thing is a bit annoying as both me and DH are double vaxxed but the rules don’t change until August. I’ve done an online shop so hoping to eat and drink our way through it

Think we might all go a bit stir crazy though - DS2 ok just a cough and no taste and smell - DS1 wants a cross painted on DS2’s bedroom door!

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:36

Jane ugh.

As my granny would say 'you don't know where it's been ' Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2021 19:38

I love Andrew Cotter. Just putting that out there.

JaneJeffer · 11/07/2021 19:39

Domestos Grin

Let him paint the cross Fizzy Grin

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:39

Oh I would much rather go to a Judy party Grin.

Midsomer murders got a mention Private Grin

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:40

Grouchy Andrew Cotter is great, he is so dry.

I much prefer his commentary.

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2021 19:41

Well done, Skupzcyk.

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:42

Aww, I did want Joe to win something, but Joe and Harriet have done well.

Fickle bunch, doubles players, aren't they? Change partners like swingers.

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2021 19:42

Harriet looks a bit stunned, poor thing.

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:43

Grouchy she does- but she really has had a great fortnight.

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2021 19:44

I still can't get over the fact that the mixed doubles pairs only get £100,000 for winning the competition when the men & women's pairs get £800,000!

JaneJeffer · 11/07/2021 19:45

Yay someone I wanted to win today won!

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2021 19:45

Cameraman has gone a bit wonky.

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:47

Grouchy it really isn't much, is it? And mixed only really happens in the slams, doesn't it? And the Olympics I suppose- but it must be difficult to organise getting players together.

GrouchyKiwi · 11/07/2021 19:49

They all look happy now, so that's great.

I love mixed doubles, it has a really interesting dynamic and they seem like they have so much fun - at least in the earlier rounds. It's worth more, IMO.

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:51

Dh has turned on the football, and is more interested in DoCs earrings- which appear to be huge red hoops.

Grin.

PrivateSpidey · 11/07/2021 19:53

Yes I really like the mixed as well, although I've hardly seen any of it this year - apart from the Venus-Kyrgios match (seems ages ago now) and then the final.

Why was Midsomer mentioned Raahh?! Grin

ChessieFL · 11/07/2021 19:54

Was that Kate at the football? I only caught a quick glimpse. She must have done a quick dash across town! Still, it’s not like she had to queue for the tube is it?!

Fizzywinegum · 11/07/2021 19:54

I noticed the earrings as well Raahh - Kate’s had a busy day!

Still can’t really get excited about the footy!

Maireas · 11/07/2021 19:54

Lovely interview, Neal and Desirae are worthy winners but Joe and Harriet did well.

Raahh · 11/07/2021 19:56

Private Andrew was saying people would be wanting to turn over to watch it at 8pm. Grin.

Fizzywinegum · 11/07/2021 19:57

Yes don’t think Kate will have to worry about getting up for work tomorrow (she might order a Maccies breakfast though Grin)

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Italian team (for some reason)
