I know that DD1's school (she left last summer) has kept the PEs online- so much easier. It was so badly organised, which didn't help.

I need a drink Grin Except I haven't had a drink since January, and it would probably make me ill.Grin

Struff is doing well. I'm expecting Stef to find another gear though.

Fizzywinegum · 04/05/2023 19:56

Maybe have a tiny drink Raahh

Struff playing well - this umpire seems a bit grumpy - no cosy Daddy chats from him (although Stef probably doesn’t need any more Dad input!)

Raahh · 04/05/2023 20:01

Grin Fizzy Stef is probably trying to tune out his dad, as usual.

I am watching but with the volume down (I’m on the iPad as DH is watching tv in the background). Therefore no idea what anyone is saying!

First time I’ve seen the ball girl outfits. They look like they should be in a Britney Spears video.

Raahh · 04/05/2023 20:04

Chessie the ball girl outfits are so odd. I mean, long sleeved and cropped just seems the wrong way around , given the climate in Madrid!

IceandIndigo · 04/05/2023 20:05

The ball girls are ridiculous Chessie. I was talking to a Spanish friend about it and she said that sort of everyday sexism is normal there and one of the reasons she doesn’t live in Spain!

My Prime is being really annoying, keeps cutting out at key moments.

Fizzywinegum · 04/05/2023 20:05

Having the sound down is probably best Chessie

Fizzywinegum · 04/05/2023 20:07

That’s interesting Ice - there’s no practical reason for them bearing their midriffs - grr!

Fizzywinegum · 04/05/2023 20:10

Ooh well done Struff!

Raahh · 04/05/2023 20:10

Ooh, Struff takes the set. Stef won't be happy to have lost the lead in the tie break.

ChessieFL · 04/05/2023 20:12

I thought it was Stef’s set when he took the lead.

Raahh · 04/05/2023 20:24

Struff is collecting banana skins Grin

Fizzywinegum · 04/05/2023 20:31

What’s he going to do with them Raahh? Grin

Raahh · 04/05/2023 20:33

Maybe he's saving them to chuck on Sref's side of the court, if he starts losing, FIzzy Grin

<eww> I’m not a banana fan anyway - yuk! I did once slip on a banana skin though - they are very slippy Grin

Stef was getting a bit of a Struffing in that last game

I'm kind of rooting for Struff to win the whole thing now though!
