Hi, Rusty!
Oh, the cameras always linger over the spectators ......I think comments about who is attending are expected!
I am watching Stan Wawrinka and Reilly Opelka play at the moment....on the Red Button.
Two sets to one for Wawrinka..... and the fourth set just starting......
You sound to have your day well organised!
You mention watching Cori/ "Coco" Gauff play.....did you realise that her match clashes with that of Madison Keys?
Both are scheduled to play at 4.15pm...... Coco on Court 2 and Madison on Court 3.
You may have to channel hop!
Novak is also playing at 4.15, but on Centre Court!
I hope to watch that ....I shall aim at going out about 2.30pm with the dog, so I shall be back in time!
Heather Watson should have started her match by now...I shall look for it, once this one has finished!
Yes, I have done (all bar two on which I am still puzzling) my crossword, too.
A fairly straightforward one today, I thought?
I liked it!

Hi Rusty
I've been to Lahinch - I may even have driven through the golf course!
I'll watch with interest to see if there's a road through it - there might be other courses there, of course.

Hello, Chris,
Just saw a small segment today.
Will see the course properly when the tournament starts tomorrow.
It is a proper links course and I much prefer those.

Hello, Elle!
No sign of Madison or Coco yet!
Unless I missed them.
I was watching a programme I recorded.
Was about the Highland Division being left behind after Dunkirk and eventually surrendering at St Valery.
I have several programmes recorded and am trying to get through them!

Good evening, Rusty!
No, you haven't missed either Coco or Madison!
Many of the matches are delayed, because prior matches overran their expectations!
Coco is now scheduled to start at 6.50, and Madison at 7.05.
Btw, there is already a "Coco" on the tennis scene...... Colleen Vandeweghe is already known as "CoCo" (albeit spelled slightly differently!)
I rushed home in time to watch Novak...... only to find his match was delayed too!
He has just started playing now!
Some disappointing results - for me, anyhow!
Feliciano Lopez has gone out , as has Kyle Edmunds!
But I did at least get to watch part of their matches, as they were showing when I arrived back.
Right...back to Novak...
I shall look out for Coco, when her match starts.....if it is showing on any of my options!

Good evening, Elle!
Well, Madison and Coco best hurry for I have a football match to watch....and golf tomorrow!
Though Sloane is first on court in the morning if this evenings' matches finish.
Lovely evening here with a nice breeze.
Lots of wing flapping at the loch from the chicks!
Maybe getting close to a fledging!

Hi, Rusty!
Not surprisingly, Novak won...but the match was very entertaining and Denis Kudla, although the loser, took it in very good part.
There was a good atmosphere.....and the crowd loved it!
Did you find your missing tennis matches?
Madison Keys has lost the first set ...….
Coco is shortly to play, on Court Number One, now......
The roof has already been closed, so that, come what may, the match can conclude tonight.
I hope you manage to see at least some of it, along with your football!
I must look in on Lassie and family...I haven't done so today.

Good morning, Elle!
Seems like a nice start to the day.
The wind has dropped, I think.
Madison was outplayed yesterday.
She is out of the singles. Too many errors.
I did not see Coco's win.
"Your football"?
Not "my" football, it is the Women's World Cup, for everyone, if they choose to watch it.
Though it was not a great game last night, I did not think.
I am looking forward to seeing a bit of the golf today.

Good morning, Rusty!
A lovely start to the day here!
I am going out for the day very shortly........
Our daughter kindly invited us to attend BB's school Sports Day, so we are leaving here about 8.45 am.
We are looking forward to seeing BB "in action"!
It was a pity that Madison lost her match yesterday ....I did not get to see any of it as it was not shown on the BBC.
Young Coco did well, dispatching her opponent with ease!
I had hoped to see the Rafa versus Nick Kyrgios match today, as there has been much speculation about it....
But the match is scheduled for 4.15 pm., and we may not be home in time.
Maybe I might get a brief glimpse on the Wimbledon Highlights this evening.
Have a good day......catch up with you later.....




Hello, Pigale!
I couldn't make the Barn Owls link work...nor did I have any more success when I tried Googling it?
That link did not work for me either?
I hope others have more success!
