Tennis: WIMBLEDON Final and beyond

[JaneJeffer]

Vamos Carlos!!

I love that, Jane saw a video about it the other day- it was scavenger hunt, by car, and Altmaier had to wear the shirt because he lost ( whole thing was a bit of an extended advert for Lexus- but it was funny).

I am slowly coming back to life, after the treatment and a hefty dose of pethidine.

Glad you got sorted Raahh I wouldn't be too impressed if I got pethidine though because as far as I'm concerned it does nothing!

Oh God I left BBC2 on and Isa is ah presenting the ah cricket and all her ah colleagues do the ah every few ah words too.
Aargh!

Hope you're recovering Raahh
Watched* *Dan and Andy both win last night. Dan looked very relieved to win after so long! Some huge hitting in the Murray vs Nakashima match and now Andy plays Fritz!

Thanks kazza I'm feeling a bit better now- although I do feel like I have been hit by a truck.

I might get chance to catch up on some of the tennis - eventually! Although I did See Felix AA lost- he's not had the best year so far- lots of early round losses.

Glad you’re feeling a bit better Raahh

Does anyone know if the tennis is on Prime and if it’s on at a sensible time ie before 10pm UK time?

I've been watching Washington on Prime fizzy Think* *they're only 5 hours behind us, so play has started today. Dan was on early evening our time last night and then Andy finished about 11.30pm. But I think both are on later tonight. I believe Andy vs Fritz is the second night match (Washington time) so I won't be watching that!

Ok thanks kazza - I’ll have a look but don’t think I’ll be staying up too late!

I have managed to watch bits of Washington, but it keeps getting suspended, a few matches from last night are still to play. They may end up a quite behind since some players were scheduled to play twice today if they win.

I should have just stayed up and watched last night for all the sleep I got!

Jane I was really miffed last night - because I was in a load of pain (tmi- but the kidney was on the move ) and didn't fall asleep til about 4 am.
So, I could have watched it - and it was all suspended. . .

The kidney STONE, obviously. If my kidneys were moving, I would have bigger problems. Literally.

that wouldn't be good

Looks like they are back (dd1 took the opportunity to watch the tv ).

Murray’s match is on now - it looks uncomfortably hot in Washington- I can almost feel the humidity coming out of the telly!

Moving kidneys would not be good Raahh (although moving kidney stones don’t sound like too much fun either!)

Fizzy I can tell you now, kidneys in general are not funny at all .

Just as I started watching again, my prime went wonky. I swear it's a conspiracy.

The ball girl holding the umbrella over Andy Murray seems weirdly fascinated by everything that he’s doing - she can’t keep her eyes off him!

Hello! I have remembered about Prime so I'm watching Andy now too.

Come on Andy!

Hope you’re feeling better Raahh

I am also watching Andy. I had to go out to pick DH up and he was 5-3 down, came back and he was winning the tiebreak! My prime is now glitching too and I’m really tired so not sure how much longer I’ll watch.

Andy throwing a grump at himself.

Oh dear - the sock situation is not looking good for either player! Thought Andy was going to wring his out and then he put them back on again

Thank you Chessie, I'm feeling a bit more human today.

I hate feet. And watching them change their shoes is funny because they always have tanned legs and white feet
But good on Fergus for having the common sense to give them both time to change. It's very hot.

Where was it that he didn't have a spare pair of shoes and was playing in a sweaty pair? Was it the US Open the other year?

It was somewhere in America Raahh - didn’t he lose his wedding ring as he’d left it in his sweaty trainers under his car?

He doesn’t seem to have learnt his lesson - surely put a spare pair of your socks in your bag Andy!
