Wimbledon!

Me too, even put my Wimbledon towels in the bathroom

Definitely [tennis ball emoticon] needed. I am also ready and waiting when

I think I'm the only one to have used the emoticon - so as it has failed to engage the excitement of GN-ers, (as did my use of it), perhaps a tennis ball might be a good substitute!

We went through the ballot, as we do every year, and have tickets for Centre Court for Wednesday. The only top player we have never seen is Andy Murray as he has always been knocked out by the time we get there.
We didn't get tickets for last year and lo and behold he won.
Fear DH and myself may be jinxed when it comes to Andy! Sincerely hope not!

Great!

Our wonderful tennis mugs are out as we speak they only come out for Wimbeldon

A good start today - great weather and wins for Andy and Novak

Despite living quite close to SW19 for years before we moved out of London and regularly walking the labrador on its common I have never been to Wimbledon! Should I give myself a big kick up the a**e and do something about it for next year?

There are two threads now titled Wimbledon

Sorry, Lona that's my fault. I looked for a recent Wimbledon thread yesterday, couldn't see it, and started a fresh one. Shall we keep to the other one?

We can but try when

Ah - but this Wimbledon! has the exclamation mark! I had just decided that it was this one I would follow - now . Just off to check out the other one >>>

Have just looked at the order of play for Wednesday on Centre Court and we still won't get to see Andy Murray play. He's on No.1 Court.

They usually show No 1 court, too. Also, if you have a red button, you can choose from several matches that are on at the same time. No way would they get away with not showing Andy Murray play!

if you have a quick look at my previous post on Monday, we have tickets for Centre Court and still won't see Andy. Will see Djokovic play though. We were lucky enough to see his wonderful Final against Nadal.

Ah, I see - that's a shame. I hope you gave a great time, though - the atmosphere will be fantastic.
