I’ve just seen a clip on FB that he has arrived and was on a practice court at Wimbledon. Oh happy day ?

Bring on the mini Magnums and take the phone off the hook!

Have to plan my menus for the next 2 weeks. Easy quick meals!

Love Rafa. Not sexy but so nice, and I love that his accent when speaking English is still,so Spanish !!

Just wish he’d stop fiddling with his shorts! Didn’t his mum tell him?

I agree but apart from that practically perfect in every way ?

Enjoy Rafa and your tennis for the next few weeks everyone. Pimms and strawberries at the ready hopefully. You can get no sense from my mother while Wimbledon is on. ?

Do hope his foot holds up for the tournament. He has been my no. 1 for a long, long time now!

Batch cooking for the freezer this week. That or sandwiches for the next fortnight!

Batch cooking now that’s a good idea lixy unfortunately my DH won’t be keen on sandwiches for tea ? however he is away a couple of nights next week ?

Love watching him play tennis, don't know what I'll do when he retires. Just heard he's going to be a dad, bet he will make a lovely father, he's so nice to everyone.

Yes dolphindaisy I feel the same about the day he retires it will be a sad day for tennis.

Lovely news he is to be a father I’m sure he will be a brilliant one. I wonder if that might influence his decision on retirement. I hope the little one inherits his fathers tennis skills. And his handsome looks too if I can say that ?

Ah, my mum loved the tennis, and enjoyed watching Nadal, with all his intense twitches, and adjusting.
