Just seen the schedule for Monday! We came up to London earlier today so have been busy doing things. Delighted to have Iga and Coco’s matches (DD also delighted!). Maybe we’ll go and look round the museum when Dick is on. Better not hit the Pimms or he might start shouting at me…

Grin Looks like you should have a good day, Chessie.
Fizzywinegum · 01/07/2023 19:45

Oh yes you don’t want to be that woman Chessie Grin

I’ve just seen that the John McEnroe documentary that I went to see last year is on Sky Documentaries channel tonight at 9pm

Thanks Fizzy

I found the documentary very bittersweet. It really captured the highs and lows of John's life.

I loved Patty's "I married a bad boy who turned out to be a really good man" 🥹

Fizzywinegum · 01/07/2023 23:22

Yes it was good Jane - his relationships with Tatum and his Dad were quite sad but hopefully he’s happy now with Patty and his kids - I think John is a good guy

I liked the Bjorn bits as well

Kyrgios has pulled out of Wimbledon. Wonder who we’ll get to see instead?!

kazzaD66 · 02/07/2023 22:15

You're alright Chessie
Dick* *has withdrawn.
Should have done it before but better late than ever.
Enjoy tomorrow!

kazzaD66 · 02/07/2023 22:16

*never!!
Better late than never!

Fizzywinegum · 02/07/2023 22:20

Oh dear what a shame about Kyrgios - not!

Looks as if Ruud has been bumped up to no 1 court and Goffin has been demoted to court no 2 against a lucky loser

Brilliant. One Dick down, one to go

Hope you have a lovely day Chessie looks like you'll need your ombrello!

Has anyone seen the video on Wimbledon YouTube, Andy practising vs Dan, Andy and Ivan are miked up and chatting with Tim, who is in the stands. Quite amusing Grin

kazzaD66 · 02/07/2023 22:41

JaneJeffer · 02/07/2023 22:44

I'm loving all the Wimbledon pictures. Look how happy Ben is to be there Grin

Poor Goffin obviously isn't "box office" enough

ChessieFL · 03/07/2023 06:13

Poor Goffin! Very chuffed I get to see Casper though!!

I have the following ready to take so I think I’m covered: waterproof, umbrella, sun cream, sun hat, sunglasses, camera!

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 06:40

Sounds like you've got it covered Chessie

I might be busy digging a new patio today Angry

ChessieFL · 03/07/2023 06:42

Oh dear, that sounds ominous Jane

Fizzywinegum · 03/07/2023 07:48

Have a great day Chessie!

Oh dear Jane - hope everything’s ok

Have a great day, Chessie ! You can now happily watch all the action, without the distraction of Kyrgios Grin. And you get to see Casper!

I was not at all surprised that Dick has with drawn- I imagine Goffin is very glad, and probably doesn't care he's been relegated to an out side court. At least he stands a better chance of making the next round, and there will be much less drama.

But I guarantee Dick will be the main topic of conversation when the Wimbledon broadcast starts- as though the whole tournament will fail with out him. Hmm

Jane Grin. I know the feeling.

JaneJeffer · 03/07/2023 08:16

Oh God yes we're going to have a full day of Kyrgios and Djok/Al Carath final chat. Must check out Eurosport coverage

Fizzywinegum · 03/07/2023 08:49

Just watching the Wimbledon queue on breakfast telly - don’t think I could deal with the camping!

Also not sure about the ladies from New York wearing the dressing gowns from their hotel Hmm

Oh yes can’t face all the Kyrgios chat - he’s an irrelevance - don’t know why they keep going on about him!

Right better get sorted - not sure which match to watch first

Marking place for everything happening in the next couple of weeks

Not sure if I'm happy or sad that Kryigos has pulled out
