Hands Up

[mallyh]

if you aren't looking forward to the footie .i'm not ,absolutely hate it. hope the joke section swells to keep me smiling xx

We'll both be watching it and hopefully enjoying it. Used to love watching Wimbledon as well until the screaming fans were let in. Its gone downhill over the past few years. Never watch the women though as I can't stand the grunting and don't see why they should get equal prize money unless they play for five sets.

I'd rather watch someone crocheting with cooked spaghetti than watch football! :o)

[mallyh]

oh gosh I forgot about Wimbledon another ugh!!!!!! I do like the six nations rugby though .

[10ClarionSt]

I believe the same as you BD. I used to really look forward to Wimbledon and knew most of the players, but I've lost interest in recent years.

Screaming fans at Wimby, BakersDozen? Do you mean the 70s when when young girls were wild about Bjorn Borg and somehow managed to rush in and get seats to see him?

You don't get many screaming fans there now. You might hear some wag shout out 'Come on, Tim!' when Andy Murray plays.

[Cloverjo]

I agree about the grunting and shrieking. Horrible, and the men do it too. Especially Nadal.

Now...I have never crocheted with cooked spaghetti, 10C...but I have decorated a leafless tree with pink spaghetti for an April Fool's Joke.... :-)

[sandyRoe]

Spaghetti on trees, wasn't that a Panorama hoax once?

[gness]

It was, Sandy.... though not pink. X

oh I thought it was another adulating piece on Trump

[sandyRoe]

Gness, it might have been pink. We had a black+white TV in those days

I have the misfortune of having a workmate who is football mad. She's arranging to have a telly set up so the clients can watch. Oh...that's with catch up so they can see matches that are on at weird hours. Great for the clients...I'll be suffering. It's my worst nightmare.

Can you see my hand up mally? I can't get it up any further ! Loathe boring football with a vengeance ....
