TENNIS THREAD- We've mowed the grass, and now it's onwards to the hard courts!

[Raahh]

Quite neat timing for a new thread really.

Fizzy
Typical bloke!

Talking of which - how is your DH Raahh? And* *more to the point, is the freezer safely delivered?

Just watching a bit of Murray/Berrettini’s match - Jim is being mean to Tim again telling Greg that he’d rather talk to him than Tim and then pretending he’s just joking

The shadow on the court is very annoying - must make it difficult to play

Jim was also a bit rude about Matteo - saying that he thought he weighed more than his official weight!

ooh even Ivan liked that shot from Murray!

kazza OMG! I am so fed up.

The freezer came- the blokes at first refused to take the old one because - as I said- it needed the ce maker defrosting. They agreed after a lengthy discussion.

Then the new freezer was really damaged. Beyond 'we'll take it with a hefty discount' even damaged. So it had to be taken back- and the old one put back, til tomorrow afternoon.

I am surrounded by boxes and bits of kitchen.

Dh has gone to bed. He is in a lot of pain. But still planning to go to the football match tomorrow.

Come on Matteo!! I need cheering up.

and yy to Rafa being a bit accident prone and possibly a liability near a baby

Jim can shut up about Matteo too- he's clearly jealous of his model looks.

Oh no Raahh that sounds like a nightmare - hope it gets sorted soon

yes Jim’s just a big meanie and obviously jealous of Matteo

What is Jim wittering about? Loads of courts, all over the place end up with a shadow on them when it's sunny.

Didn't Djok complain about the shadows at Rome the other year?

Is Jim suggesting Murray moans a lot ? Surely not Lendl looked suitably unimpressed .

Ivan never looks impressed Raahh - I think it’s funny when he disappears straight after a match and Andy always seems a bit awkward about it in post match interviews

They are still going on about the shadows- which affect both of them, not just Murray.

Just switched over to the Ons Jabeur/Shelby Rogers match - Shelby’s top is erm interesting

Blimey- Shelby's skirt is definitely a look.

I always think that Raahh - whatever the conditions are they affect both players

Ons has won

Sorry meant to do a rather than a about the conditions!

The top is odd too- not as odd as the bra top thing that many were wearing during RG/Wimbledon.

Her top had a little window for her cleavage Raahh - was quite distracting!

Fizzy adverse conditions onlynegatively affect which ever player the commentators are biased towards. It's commentary law.

You'd need wipers for a top like that round here today.

I suppose it's quite hot, FIzzy the hole could be quite useful .

Or maybe the top was back to front?

You didn't happen to get your freezer from Currys Raahh? Our cooker arrived all bashed up last year and they were quite affronted when we wanted an unabashed one!

Yes possibly back to front

I just think about the weird tan lines with all these cut out outfits!

Tim is on shadow watch!

Jane we got it from AO- and have never had a problem with anything from them before. The delivery blokes were actually really apologetic (said it was the second one this week that had been badly damaged).

I didn't even want to get a new one. (even though we do need it).

Unbashed not unabashed obviously

Matteo is looking a bit chunkier than usual. Not that I can talk.

I have 'In the Shadows' by The Rasmus going through my head. Which reminds me of this year's Eurovision, which now feels a very long time ago.
