Tennis: Here we go again, all the slams ahead of us.

[magimedi]

Uninspired title but looking forward to the new year.............. as long as a certain cock does not win 'em all!

Prime is a bit dodgy. Seems to be stuck.

I had a weird message when I put Prime on - first in German and then Japanese but it seems to be working now!

I agree that the canopies over the players are very low - Andy Murray was having to peer up from his yesterday when he was arguing with the umpire! They also seem to rely on the ball kids putting them up - I keep imagining one of them collapsing and knocking a player out!

I saw the beginning of Sascha’s match so surprised to see that he won - it’s good that he seems to be coming back from his injury

I've been trying to do some gardening - the dandelions are taking over!

Oh only hand held umbrellas on the outside courts!

I told someone on another thread to leave the dandelions for the bees Fizzy but she was having none of it! We've got loads out the back this year too. It's too wet to mow so the bees better get on with it in case it ever stops raining!

I've had to switch everything off and on again to get it working. I can't be doing this every time I want to watch a different match!

Jane - I’ve seen a lot of bees in our garden so maybe it is the dandelions!

The crowd are very rowdy for the Humbert/Sonego match? Humbert now serving for the match

i hate dandelions- we don't have a back garden, but a never ending battle with weegs/grass/dandelions taking over the pation.

Prime can be really annoying when it comes to changing matches- but it's better than not having it

Humbert's fans are pretty rowdy

Andrey doesn't look very energetic today.

Jane Andrey always looks knackered and half asleep.

Crowd are turning t into a football match on the Sonego/Humbert match

Whispery woman on commentary. I may have to reboot again

Oh no - not whispery woman
I'll stick with the football chanting.

Ugh I’ve just seen that Djok is playing later - I’d forgotten he was there! Boo!

The Humbert/Sonego match is very lively!

ADF in trouble against Khachanov. May en d in revenge for Karen, having lost to ADF at IW.

Sonego seems to attract the rowdy people.

Sonego very happy with his win - Was more like a final than a first round match!

FIzzy I have been pleasantly surprised that there hasn't been a whole load of ' what about Djok' commentary. Australia was full of it. - but so far, I've not heard him mentioned much really.

Maybe it's a new 'under the radar' tactic his pr team are trying.
I don't trust him...

Well done Lorenzo- but Ugo is going to rue the chances he had.

I've put mini Boris on instead now.

Yes it is strange that they’ve not been going on about Djok - they usually don’t stop talking about him (even when he’s not there

I did know that he was playing but had sort of forgotten so was surprised to see his name!

Mini Boris not doing too well against Karen

Although I love the European clay court season it means that I don’t get much else done! At least there aren’t any late nights (until the French Open - hope they get their scheduling sorted out!)

Yes it's very distracting Fizzy

The scheduling at RG came in for a fair bit of criticism. Alcara z wasnt happy -as the 'new kid on the block' they kept giving him the night match.

Sadly, money talks-and they are probably still paying for the roof. So, matches not scheduled til 8/9 it is - and that's just daft . (Especially when the weather is not as likely to be warm, as it tends to be in Melbourne or New York).

Now this is unusual. The disruptive spectators are taking over in MC now too.

Sit down, ffs.

Anyone need a Lock Screen?

I think that lot came over after the Lorenzo match

You are probably right. Noisy buggers.
