Tennis - bleugh.

My OH loves it though. Plays it 2/3 times per week, watches it (if I'm in the room he will turn the sound down because I can't cope with all that grunting!).

He's off to Wimbledon tomorrow - which is great. He'll be happy and I will spend the day dossing around - preferably out in the sun!

I'm not that keen Rox: I dont mind if it's a nice fit healthy young man with good legs and a tight bum - preferably clean shaven, tanned and with no sweat stains on his t-shirt - but apart from that I can take it or leave it)))))))

The ladies final is just so predictable - one or other of them will win - lol who's turn is it to win this year? I reckon they toss a coin to see who's to get to dance with the winner of the male title at the Ball.

I didnt actually realise until reading this thread that Andy Murray had lost his match, that's how interested I am in it!
Sad he's been knocked out, but hey why change the habits of what seems to be many life-times in British tennis?

I don't watch sport of any description, find it boring to say the least. Hubby likes most sport though so I have an excuse to come on here.

Must admit that when we had a pub in North Wales I got quite interested in rugby. Even watched it when not working. Can even now be known to watch the big matches but hate to admit it.

Dear All

Hello,

I LOVE football!

I like the big tournaments of the World Cup
and Euro Championships.

During the football season, I remain neutral for supporting a team as everyone in my family likes different ones!

Someone has to restore order!

I remember when Jimmy Connors played.
Now, he was very good.

The Wimbeldon mixed doubles matches are more relaxed
and played more skilfully, so enjoyable to watch.

I don't like cricket or golf. I don't understand the rules and the pace of the sport is too slow.

Best wishes to all.
xx
