TENNIS: Wimbledon Quarterfinals

[JaneJeffer]

Maybe I imagined it! It was a montage of Djok saying Goooood night, looking even more demonic than usual and then playing his racquet like a violin - it was like a weird fever dream!

Oh dear Carlos

It is the spirit of Beelzebub.

No Jane. My* *TV fine.
The only weird thing was that attempted shot from Carlos

😂

Daniil looked at Carlos then like "What the actual hell? Are you human?" Superb passing shot.

Do we think they'll mess up the final coverage for the footy or start the men's final earlier?

It should be finished by the time the football starts at 8! If not I've bagsied the television so I don't care.

Unfortunately you did not imagine it Fizzy. I had the misfortune to see it too. Who on earth thought it was a good idea?!

Yes especially now they have the roof- I can't see it going on that long. Even the longest match in 2019 was just under 5 hours.
Final starts around 2pm , usually?

I don't care either- dh watches the football on his pc.

Clare Balding just said that the coverage for the football will start at 6.30

DH has been fretting about it already although I think that may just be an excuse to abscond to the pub 🤔

I'd be delighted if dh would go to the pub- then he wouldn't be mithering me

Oh God yes they have to talk about it for hours first!

Is that Ash with her Mum?

Jane It's amazing how long the pre-amble for a football match is. They take longer talking about it, than actually playing.

Grouchy definitely Ash , so probably her mum.

I'm worried that the absence of Isa today means she has been promoted to Finals Weekend (she hasn't done that for the last two years).

I know Claire is marmite, but she preferable to Isa (and at least knows what she's talking about, most of the time).

Or they've realised she's crap and ditched her Raahh

Well, I've avoided her since about Wednesday, so I'm actually hoping that's the case

I think last year she went back to the cricket in the second week

Jane then why bother with her in the first place? They should have just got someone who was competent could do the fortnight.

Why bother challenging that? Carlos was right there, if it was in he would have hit it.

Daniil seems to have given up now.

Or maybe not.
