Gigante came good in the end! Grin

Had a US open burger in Rafa's cafe - it seemed the safest bet - the other slam burgers had weird ingredients like egg, beetroot and pineapple (Australian open) and the Wimbledon burger had ox tail and Worcestershire sauce Hmm

All in all it was a good experience (apart from sweet Caroline) - the tennis complex is v impressive (sort of hoped that I'd at least see uncle Toni though) and it was good to see some live tennis

Grin Looks good! Nothing better than a name stamped in your burger Grin Egg, beetroot and pineapple?? bleugh.

And Rafa statue. Grin.

The player in the picture is Ajduković who is also into the final and continuing the short short revival!

Raahh · 31/08/2024 19:55
Grin But did Gigante have gigante shorts, or short shorts?

And if he wasn't tall, that really is a tricky name to live with.

Unless it's not his height .

(I am obviously thinking of his feet)

Grin

Good on him!

Robotic isn't looking too lively here. Looks like a shoo in for Jack now.

Yeah if you go to a chippy in NZ and order a burger it’s pretty much guaranteed they’ll put at least one of beetroot, egg and pineapple on it, sometimes all three. I didn’t know Australians had the same weird tastes.

Raahh · 31/08/2024 19:59

The Voice is starting soon- Jannik seems to be managing ok.

I am in two minds about watching the Voice- but I feel I should at least try.
(I never remember the winners).

That is a very odd combination. But then I don't like eggs or beetroot, which doesn't helpGrin.

I'll stick to gherkins. I actually like gherkins. Grin.

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 20:04

Well done Jack!

He wasn't that tall Raahh - he's also about the same age as DS2 so didn't want to perv too much - didn't notice his feet Grin

I'm also not a fan of eggs or beetroot so the Aussie burger was a definite no from me!

Fizzywinegum · 31/08/2024 20:19

Just catching up on the US Open scores - well done Jack!

impossibletoday · 31/08/2024 20:29

Apparently it is the first year since Federer won his first grand slam in 2003 that none of the big 3 have won a slam.

Hmm

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 20:38

A new era @impossibletoday. First time since 2000 that the defending champion lost before the fourth round.

Fizzywinegum · 31/08/2024 20:41

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 20:33

Hmm

What?!?! I was looking everywhere for him! Grin

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 20:44

Exactly Fizzy Grin

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 20:56

TP has lost the first set

Raahh · 31/08/2024 21:19

Hmm looks like TP has woken up in the second set.

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 21:37

Aww Stan would approve

Feli says he can tell if someone is left handed just by looking at their face

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 21:46

Laura is pretty in pink tonight

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 21:48

Jack isn't used to analysing his shots for a tv audience Grin

Raahh · 31/08/2024 22:13

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 21:37

Aww Stan would approve

Aww!! That's cute.Bear

I am score watching, I see TP has won 2 sets now

I really hope he doesn't get too dark in the draw.

Raahh · 31/08/2024 22:16

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 21:38

That is a bit odd- how? I'm a leftie, along with my mum, sister, gran and my dad.

I mean, we do all look alike short but I don't know if I have a 'leftie' faceGrin.

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 22:18

This is a strange match!

He said he can't explain it but it's true Raahh must be a sixth sense thing!
