I'm off to Wimbledon on Wednesday, No.2 court.  It's a great day out especially if the weathers fair.  I won't be looking out for Rafa though, instead I'll be keeping an eye out for Sue. (Barker) :P

Best of luck to Andy Murray.  Pity he's not as sexy as Rafael Nadal or Roger Federer but there we go.

Andy has won his last four games against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga so it looks promising that we might have the first British man in a Wimbledon men's singles final since 1938.  Anyone on here want to admit to watching that game live?

Off to get some pimms to mark the occasion. 

Starts at 4pm.
I am!  Should be a great match.  Got a bad feeling though!  Federer looks awesome, he should win the championship.  I don't think that you can beat watching great live sport, especially with an ice cold beer in hand!  Enjoy.

[/quotei dont need  tissues just tons of ready mixed concrete to level each playing court and top off with a few rusty girders before it sets game and match.

They train these umpires from a very early age. There they are sitting in their high chairs shouting, "juice, juice"

Well done Andy Murray, although he lost the match he won over a lot of hearts.  Without the lows you cannot truly appreciate the highs. 

On a slightly different note, if what the pundits say is true and the money doesn't matter, why have a million pound prize?  I find it rather obscene. 

Whilst on the subject of money...........no I best not!  I was thinking 'Bob Diamond'!!!!

If money was a problem then how could they have built that roof over centre court? Money isn't a problem. It's a multi £million business. The Duke of Kent is the president of the All England Club and where you find Masons you find money. It aint poor. Youngsters just need encouraging to play more tennis. There are people who recognise this situation and are teaching youngsters for free and the hope is that we shall soon have some rising stars in the tennis worlt.

I wonder why they offer such huge cash prizes when players, pundits etc, claim that the money is unimportant.  Perhaps they give it away, you never know!
