Not enough croquet at the all England Club these days old boy.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Other Sport] Here they come, get ready for the roar!!

Not long now until Sue Barker will be issuing those immortal words as the nation goes tennis potty again for a fortnight with the All England Championships.
This year myself and Mrs Crodo along with our good friends Polly and Giles have been lucky enough to acquire tickets to Court 1 on Tuesday. I've heard the atmosphere is electric and unprecedented in all sport, should be an absolute hoot.
Lovely stuff as always Crodo. Sadly it looks like the weather is set fair all week so we won't be seeing Sir Cliff crooning to the otherwise disappointed middle class ticket holders until at least next Monday.

....and roaring enthusiastically when the umpire tells someone off for having their mobile phone not on silent.

My mate shouted this at Greg Rusedski when he was having a knock about outside the Amex before a game a few seasons back. Greg did see the funny side which was nice to see

Failed in the ballot yet AGAIN this year :-(
The lovely, luscious Latvian lady, Jelena Ostapenko with big boobs.
She's due on at around 6pm. Hoping for a good Wimbledon for her.
Where’s the sweepstake?

And goes on to win the first set 6-4.
Not sure whether you or the erudite [MENTION=5076]Bevendean Hillbilly[/MENTION] deserve this year's inaugural annual Hunter S Thompson /slash/ John Giorno award for pungent prose. Tell you what, have one each. In case you are unfamiliar with the great men's works (I am guessing not), I give you:
HST: “There are times, however, and this is one of them when even being right feels wrong. What do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison and sex is death? If making love might be fatal and if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV and relentless ************. It’s a strange world. Some people get rich and others eat shit and die.”
JG "I'd swim through a mile of shit just to suck the **** of the last man who ****** her".
ps apologies to Crodo for derailing his delightful thread.

Venus maybe about to lose to a 15 year old version of herself. This kid (Cori Gauff) is good.

Brilliant stuff. Future champ if she can keep on the straight and narrow. Awesome.
