Tennis: Enjoying the last throes of the grass court season

Awww bless Ash seems like such a great girl

Jane

Raahh

Sorry Jane it was funny! I used to like Tom but he's just gone a bit weird in his old age

I’m with you on Tom Cruise Raahh - he’s weird!

Lovely speeches - I’m sniffling on the settee - must be so hard for Barty being away from her family for so long

I did think a ‘Barty party Down Under’ sounded a bit rude from Sue though

ha ha

sad agree to be away from your family for over a year

Fizzy

Jane will never speak to us again

I hate the missing year on the board. It makes me feel weird. I wish they put the year and left it blank.

kate holding her bag just in case anyone thinks they should shake her hand

Dumb question time

Why are all the women on the Honors Board all Miss no Mrs or Ms

Kate almost bulldozed the Duke of Kent out of the way to get to Ash

It's ok Fizzy I know he's weird but I don't care

Kate doesn’t want to get pinged again by the COVID app!

i saw that, i read that Evonne Goolagong was the first mother to win wimbledon, must have been 1980

are they all Miss , or is it a tradition

Jane

There are a few things about that last year that are odd, Jane

And I don't get how they wouldn't have the balcony thing- when they have all been sitting on top of each other in the court. What's the difference? .

There are Miss and Mrs

@ChessieFL

Do you think they have special hairdressers there to do the ball girls’ hair?!

They do! I saw behind the scenes once. There are a lot of rules

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the ladies in the finals used to
come on to court carrying bouquets of flowers?

Flowers are probably Covid carriers @ozymandiusking

Shame the bouquet tradition ended!

Maireas the behind the scenes thing wa really interesting- and made me wonde if you couldn't do it, of you had short hair.

Or would you wear a wig.

like Irish dancing

Btw how did Marcus Wareing blag a Royal Box seat just behind Kate?
