TENNIS: Dubai, Golden Swing, USA

[JaneJeffer]

Well done to Luca and Pedro for winning Naples and Girona. I don't know where you're going to put that trophy Luca

Ooh I’ve just found Berrettini’s match on Sky - the sleeves of his t-shirt matches the clay court nicely

I wonder if Rafa will play Monte Carlo - his Instagram has been fairly quiet - maybe he’s going to make a last minute decision

Fizzy he's not quite so clay coloured as some of the kits last year- they really did camouflage with the courts. It does look better on the clay.

Rafa is listed as playing MC/Barca and Madrid- but whether he will play them all is another matter. Of course, if he does play, he will play early on as he won't be seeded.

I saw a worrying thing about Djok and his search for a coach- Judy Murray was mentioned. No! Unless she plans to nobble him.

Blimey- Wispa is so blooming whispery I can't hear her at all!

(The sound is terrible in general- I've got it turned up so much,the ad break scared the dog).

I had to turn the sound up but then the other commentator sounded very loud - The adverts are even louder! Maybe she thinks the players can hear her talking?

Oh dear I can’t imagine Judy putting up with Djok’s nonsense!

Ha ha snap Raahh although we haven’t got a dog - just DH and DS1 WFH

No, I can't really imagine Judy putting up with Djok. She has a sense of humour for a start, something I'm not convinced he has.

Wispa is very annoying. I would hate to talk to her in person- I feel like I would be forever saying 'sorry, what?' it's like she thinks she doing bedtime stories on children's tv.

Dh wfh at the other end of the room- but he always wears headphones. Which is ok- except he never answers me if I need him ever. I usually end up texting him .

Annoyingly, he still asks me things- whilst still wearing the headphones. .

My lot usually have headphones on as well - drives me mad! We have to text them to tell them their tea is ready! DS1 is moving out soon - just need to work on the other one now

Oh yes the bloody ear pods or whatever they're called. So annoying chatting away and then realising they can't even hear you especially when you're asking them to do something! Mind you DS2 mostly wanders around with a speaker on like it's the 80's!

I have got used to talking to myself. I do it quite a lot.

Matteo is doing well. I don't know if it's the camera angle or my tv, but he seems shorter today.

Dh is also bald. His headphones make him look like a cyberman.

or Nookie Bear.

(my dcs do not know who that is.).

Nookie Bear - alas I am old enough to remember him!

I always loved Nookie Bear. Had funny eyes, Probably one of those things that wouldn't get shown on tv today .

Well done Matteo!

Yes it’s not aged well

Well done Matteo - ooh topless Matteo a nice Tuesday afternoon treat

OMG! Roger de Courcy and Nookie Bear!

There's no way Judy would put up with Djok's bollocks! Plus, why would she ruin what appears to be a fairly happy and interesting life by being in close proximity to the fig eater? Are you sure it's not an April Fool?

kazza unfortunately, the article was a couple of days ago, or I would certainly have thought it was an April Fool

ooh it's Stan

talking of bears...

And Stary Eyed Albert- not seen him around for while,

Yay Stan! He’s playing stary eyed Albert - Stan and Albert don’t really sound like two tennis players - more like characters from Coronation Street!

They do- they should be meeting in the Snug over a pint,

Quick first set for Stan

Well done Stan!

Fast work in the end for Stan - poor Albert - maybe he’ll go and have a pint in the Rovers to cheer himself up!

Rafa seems very confused about what they are doing
