Anyone else watching it?
It seems quite exciting this time,
Tune in, and drop ball...

You see what you've done there...? You've mistakenly put a tennis related article in the Entertainment section ;-)

Yawn.... nearly as boring as cricket or rugby.

They could always liven it up by replacing the tennis ball with a hand grenade.
But WTF are the BBC doing sticking it on both 1&2 ? Are they trying to boost audience figures ready for the next time Henman looses..
Edit.
You forgot to mention golf, indoor bowls, or darts.

We got different sports
It's true there are all sorts
But declaring one sport best
Will surely cause unrest
Boxing is for gangsters
Gymnastics is for pranksters
Football is for squirts
and tennis is for flirts
Baseball is for jerks
and swimming has no perks
Wrestling isn't real
it just does not appeal
Don't tell me about your darts
it's a game played by old farts
There's no talent in lacrosse
I just don't give a toss
Martial arts is tough
but only kids can't get enough
Fencing is for nerds
and ping-pong's for the birds
You've got a favourite sport?
I tell you its for nought
You try to watch Grand Prix
but there's just no race to see
There's no skill in benchrest gunning
and no brain involved in running
Mixed doubles may seem chic
but to me its pretty bleak
Golf is very boring
At tee-off we're all snoring
And there's nothing at all nifty
about a batsman reaching fifty
We got different sports
It's true there are all sorts
Support yours all you can
but not everyone's a fan

How careless of me, must be losing my memory as i get, um. err, younger is it?
Feck, i've just realised. I hate all spectator sports other than football and martials arts/boxing. :-o
Even with football, if it's not my team playing I can take it or leave it usually.

Hey Yo!
Well, Canadian Greg Rusedski is out, although he played a better match than Henman against a better player (Johansson). So not too much complaints there. It is a shame about Greg, he could have been such a kick ass player. But the bonehead sacked his decent coach in the late nineties, and then went downhill after winning a series of trophies.
Henman on the other hand is a LAWN loser! (Geddit!) :-D
Regards,

That's nothing some people actually enjoy using out of date computer hardware... and others are so stuck in the past that they even invest in operating systems which are horribly archaic and featureless ;-)

He lives with his Mum. I only see him at weekends for the last 5 or 6 years. :-( He's here now upstairs sleeping.
The recent separation was the only serious relationship I've had since I split up with his mum. 3 years or so, that's what you get from sleeping with the boss I suppose! (She was my boss when I met her.)
Living back at my mum's for a bit, whilst applying for teaching positions down in Birmingham so I can be near Nicholas again, as thats where he lives with his mum.

Ja, relationships are like the facets on a fine crystal or diamond. Those little flashes and glints of light can be seen from so many angles . . . and lost from so many too. It's often a cruel quirk that one remembers those little sparkles, the many snapshots thrown together and embedded in a disjointed memory matrix, an imperfect image of a perfect time.
Well, they say it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. My problem is much simpler than that . . . I don't need to choose between a sock and a woman because I am in the unenviable (or enviable, depending on your outlook) position of not having the latter.

Of course, you could take solace in the notion that suction can also be applied to one's emotional reserves and one's bank balance...
