Hi everyone! Just got back from holiday to pouring rain, seems like I haven’t missed very much tennis yet! Glad you had a good time yesterday Chessie, good thing you didn’t go today.

I also thought Andy seemed glum fizzy. Didn’t catch his match but by all accounts he played really well. Weird. I do hope he has a good run.

Happy to see Roger who was somehow managing to pull off a beige suit, not so convinced by Mirka’s dress though.

Looks like the forecast for the rest of the week is a bit better, they must have a lot of matches to squeeze in. Wish I wasn’t working.

I can only see balls, no racquets! Tennis

JaneJeffer · 04/07/2023 21:54

Well done Tomas Martin. Bernabe played really well too.

Hope you had a good holiday Ice. They've got a lot of catching up to do.

So dark in London. It's still completely bright here.

Andy's press conference was very odd. Anyone would think he had lost! He was upbeat enough at his oncourt interview.
Quite liked his pastel mint coloured top though Grin

Can't believe they're playing 2nd round matches on Centre Court tomorrow, when half the first round matches haven't yet started!

It was more of an ode to how wonderful roger is it was

Yeah still don't get how the matches tomorrow are going to play out in that respect

Late update on the weather ....
It has not stopped raining here all evening!

Really heavy..I have had to close the windows !

Looks a bit clearer tomorrow,but that hill is going to be very very damp if anyone is going and planning a picnic on it !

bizzey · 05/07/2023 01:28

I don't know if my calculations are correct...but they seem to have 18 matches still to finish ?

Not sure if it’s been mentioned already but apparently Jordan Thompson is no longer tache man - maybe he got fed up of being compared to a porn star and shaved it off! (His moustache that is!)

Hopefully his new aero-dynamic look will cause Djok some problems later!

Oh dear, one less dodgy Aussie facial haired bloke, thenGrin

It's probably been shown on tv already but I've just watched on the Wimbledon app a video of an interview between Sue and Roger, filmed in the last day or two. And it rained Grin

Raahh · 05/07/2023 11:22

I thought I would miss the start of things today, but it doesn't look like anything is happening yet.

Aww, I was quite fond of the dodgy tache Grin

ShakeYourFeathers · 05/07/2023 11:37

Morning all ! Eurgh isa is on a role with the daft questions.

Raahh · 05/07/2023 11:39

She's useless,, Shake. A main part of this gig is being able to adlib and fill during rain and gaps in the schedule- and all she does is regurgitate what others are saying.

ShakeYourFeathers · 05/07/2023 11:43

If it's dry why are they waiting till 12.30 if there is such a back log.

Isa now has to ad Lib and chat for 50 minutes excluding that interview with Andy Murray and Tim whilst practicing again

Raahh · 05/07/2023 11:48

Shake yes, I have not doubt we will see that video again Grin

JaneJeffer · 05/07/2023 11:52

Isa and Naomi should swap seats!

Raahh · 05/07/2023 11:54

I am going to take the opportunity to go to the shops, before anything starts. There is a limit to how much 'chat' I can listen to.

I love Naomi, they should get Liam in with her. Grin

And a limit to how many times you can watch that interview

JaneJeffer · 05/07/2023 11:56

That would be great Raahh but Casper will have to beat him first Grin
