Tennis- As we leave Rome (and the ombrelli) it's off to Paris- pack the parapluie!

[Raahh]

I am not paying attention to thread lengths these days .

I'm laughing to myself remembering when Jim said there's nowhere I'd rather be than here with you to Fabrice who didn't respond

"He gets up like Lazarus"

Poor Fabrice - Jim used to ask him some hard questions!

Surely Gael will be wrecked if he gets through here

Crazy!

Surely Gael isn’t going to come back and win this?!

He's absorbing all the energy from the crowd

Wow that shot!

Gael is playing some amazing tennis!

I jinxed him

It’ll be such an anticlimax if he doesn’t win now.

Ok maybe I’m revising my opinion on putting Gael on in this slot

Also short players should not be wearing that kit!

Gael will need an ice bath tout de suite!

Stupid time violation

Boo!

Ohh

Telly going on standby

Gael

What the heck?

OMG!!!

Wow! What a match! Poor Baez had to battle both Monfils and the crowd.

Unbelievable

He’ll have to be carried off the court!

He has to play Rune next

Wow! Was going to have an early night but DS watching Monfils, so I joined him at 1-4 in the final set and obviously couldn't stop watching! How the hell did he win that?! You have to feel for Baez.
Marion and Babs both very fluorescent
