Tennis: US Open - sick as a small hospital

[JaneJeffer]

I couldn't resist, it's something we say in Ireland, sorry

Have a great holiday Fizzy

I must admit, I always forget the first to 10 points rule in the tie break. It catches me out pretty much every time.

Protesters in the US are not as much fun a Wimbledon. Where are the jigsaws!

I also forgot the daft US scheduling, that means the men's doubles final is this afternoon, after the semi final yesterday. I do hope Joe and Rajeev can win- Joe is a bit over looked by the British team, imo, and this will be his 3rd US Open win in a row, if they win. Be tough though- Bopanna and Ebdon have been playing really well.

I'm torn too- Fizzy- I really want to watch Ben- but I don't want to watch Djok. And his ears are now starting to give me nightmares.

Hopefully he’ll melt in the afternoon sun!

one of them had glued his feet to the concrete in the stands
No wonder he wouldn't budge then, what an idiot

I’m trying not to think about how they eventually removed him - ouch!

Isn't glue made of petrochemicals?

Jane

Have* a fantastic holiday fizzy *

oof- this is not a good start.

Come on Joe and Rajeev!

It’s a very British way to protest isn’t it, chucking a jigsaw around.

It is - especially if it's got a naice picture of a stately home, or picturesque view .

(I can't remember if the one they chucked at Wimbledon was actually Wimbledon themed - I hope it was- but what a waste-and I bet it cost a bit!).

Ok, so google tells me it was a 1000 piece Wimbledon themed jigaw.

Fantastic .

That's better

A better protest would have been to steal a piece from each jigsaw in the Wimbledon shop

Jane It would! Imagine how annoying that would be.

This set is not going well- but they could till turn the match round.

Hello Wurzel

I thought they were going to show us Djok practicing having a fake sore elbow again.

Because we are really bothered.

Used he be an umpire? I recognise his face

I have no idea what that was all about

Oh air con

They will now have the roof closed for Djok.

Of course. He probably rang and told them to get on with it so it would be set up nicely for him.

I really need to hoover the sitting room but it's too hot but it's also getting on my nerves. Sorry just rambling because there's nobody here to tell

Yes, the air con will be nicely circulated by the time his match starts.

Oh, I really hope Ben can at the very least give a really good scare.
