TENNIS: Get the Pimms ready - it’s nearly Wimbledon time!

[Fizzywinegum]

New thread

Albot must be thinking just let me win this set!

Hubi is strong. If I slipped like that I'd be a gonner!

I'm out with the dogs. Drizzle in SE London

They're suspending play now. Albot seems to be locked in and can't leave

Just finished a bit of tidying and now sat down to rain! Boo! Paul Jubb still doing well in the second set - think Seyboth Wild be glad to get off the court

I think this is the same court Holger couldn't get out of to go to the loo last year

God I miss Sue

Me too Jane - I think the skill of live presenting is really underestimated - Sue made it seem so effortless - I don’t think that Isa knows anything or cares about tennis and it shows

Oh Jack Draper’s dog again - was cute the first time

Me too. Are we going to get Andy all afternoon?

And now we get the Jack Draper video

Again.

I mean- he's got a cute dog and all that, but there are 100s of player involved in the draw altogether.

2 players do not a tournament make.

X post Fizzy.

We'll be a jaded bunch by next week

Now they're repeating the interview with Jack that they showed yesterday. Surely they have other stuff lined up for when it inevitably rains?

She is so useless.

Er....

Er....

Have they not got some episodes of Crufts they can show.

Claire does Crufts.

She keeps turning her head to look at the camera instead of looking at John Lloyd whoever she's speaking to

They are just repeating themselves. Over and over again.

Quick someone grab Gigi from next door

Surely it's time to show the 1980 final.

Noooo 🥲

1981?

2008?

Oh dear we’re getting grumpy early in the tournament

I just went on Instagram and bloody David Beckham was there advertising ninja BBQs and pizza ovens - does that man never stop selling things and why is he everywhere!

Hope it stops raining soon or I’ll have to watch Djok - might have some Pimms (although it’s more like hot chocolate weather here)

I see Beckham brought his mum yesterday so that Victoria didn't have to sit there not having a clue what was going on but trying to look interested

Maybe Beckham should just have a carboot sale. Or try and sell one of his old shirts on Flog It.

I know it took Victoria about 15 years for her 'fashion' brand to start making any kind of profit. Maybe he's stuck paying off the debts .

I’m going to clean the bathroom (I’d also forgotten that Kyrgios will probably be on later so that’s made me grumpy as well) - I hope that he’s more smartly dressed today - Tim didn’t look very impressed with his outfit yesterday
