Wimbledon

Anyone else watching Wimbledon? I've taken a couple of days off this week and a couple of days next week to watch it and there were some superb games yesterday. Federer really was back to his best in his game.

Is it that time already? Now I know what I'll be doing with my free time (if I can kick Allie off the TV).

Mmmm. Maybe we should stock up on strawberries and cream while we're at it.

I am jealous because one of my good friends left Sunday night for London, and she is planning on going to Wimbledon Wednesday or Thursday! I guess I will have to settle for watching it on TV as well.

Just up the road from me then!

Yep, Chris Eaton did really well - hopefully we'll see a lot more of him in the future.

Richard Gasquet - he's a good player, so it could be a tough match.

I'm missing so much fun! When you've got just one television, the Wimbledon coverage is on from 7:00am - 5:00pm local time, and you have a (nearly) four-year-old and a fifteen year-old...

You're not saying you let the kids run the TV, are you Dave? Sounds to me like a good excuse to buy a second TV....

By the way, Alexander is never nearly four? Where on earth is the time going?
