Tennis: WIMBLEDON Final and beyond

[JaneJeffer]

Vamos Carlos!!

Well done Thiem. He will be happyto have a win.

I'm finding the day very long

Thanks kazza and impossible - it’s always worrying when I agree with Kyrgios (I remember when he became the voice of reason in the pandemic when he called Djok a tool )

AC’s commentary yesterday was embarrassing - he didn’t really have anything to say about the tennis - just gossip about people in the crowd and nattering on about Alcaraz’s home town and tennis club etc (yawn). I definitely wouldn’t want to be listening to Kyrgios mouthing off though . Not too sad to see the back of Inverdale

Yes today does seem very long - what did I do before Wimbledon? (Probably watch Queens and before that the French Open )

Wish it would stop raining here (although I don’t want 40 odd degree heat either!)

I’m sure there are lots of things that I could be doing - I think I’ll just try and ease myself back into post Wimbledon life gently

I know
After spending so many weeks watching somethin every day - it's always a big adjustment when things end. Suddenly IW/Miami time seems age ago.

To make things more annoying, my Prime keeps freezing. (Stan is playing doubles at the moment).

(Sorry that was in response to Jane)

Fizzy I am very tired of the rain. Nothing seems to be drying out at all.

I can't wait for @viques screenplay.

I'm dependent on Tsitsidosa for entertainment today and they haven't let me down.

Just done some score watching- Liam Broady won his first set in Newport . And Stanand Stricker on their doubles match- go Stan!

My day has improved slightly as a new series of Only Connect starts tonight.

My life is a rollercoaster.

Only Connect - yet!

Not sure if I’ll be bored enough for Tsitsidosa Jane - the live feed had finished when I just happened to click on it

yay for Only Connect!

DD and I are looking forward to Only Connect 😃

They were very sweet Fizzy They were on a boat somewhere but wouldn't say because they don't want paparazzi. I guess this is their way of controlling what's published about them.

Liam won in Newport, unfortunately he now plays the ex porn star Jordan Thompson, who only lost one game today.

Kevin Anderson is also playing. Clearly retirement didn't agree with him

Aww, I liked Kevin.
And well done Liam. I could only score watch, so don't know if he was back to wearing the awful deckchair it

*kit

Maybe I’ll catch their next one Jane

I’d heard that Kevin Anderson was coming out of retirement kazza - has anyone ever come back successfully from retirement? The game moves so quickly these days

I'm just as bad at Only Connect as ever. I'd like a job making up stupid clues for it though.

Jane I did actually get the music one.

But I'm proving rubbish at everything else.

I'm disappointed JT Porn Tache didn't get a mention when they were discussing moustaches .

I missed the music question. Might go back and see what it is. I think the connections are getting worse and worse.

Stanley is a poor woman's Ryan Reynolds

I agree! And it's odd now because they have done away with the plastic covid screens- (which always seemed daft, anyway, since a lot of the teams were related /lived together!)

He looks like Bernard (the bloke Megamind turns into in the film ).

Sue Barker!!!
