Have my tickets ready as usual - I am going three days this time round (2 on centre court and 1 on court 1) so should see some good tennis. What's the betting that it will rain the day I am on court 1?

Plan your journeys well, as there is a chance there could be a tube strike. Its not showing on the TFL website but its been in the news. Not sure if they've sorted it as yet or whether its still going ahead.

Not a real problem for me as I park at my nan's house and walk up which only takes about 20 minutes.

I've not been under the new roof on centre court so I don't need to worry if it rains! :D

true. might sneak into one just for the one off experience. The World Cup at the Odeon was great last year (watching twenty feet tall versions of WayneRooney and Frank Lampard lol).

But yeah generally a bad idea. I wonde if they'll lay on strawberrys?

What are the chances? John Isner and Nicholas Mahut played the longest tennis match everblast year at Wimbledon and they've been drawn together again in the first round this year!
