Tennis Anyone.....

Like last year we had a residence free ticket to the Stella Artois Tennis Championships http://www.artoischampionships.com/1/home/default.asp and also like last year as soon as the lawn tennis season arrived so did the rain!

Unfortunately as keen as we were to see some summer evening tennis, by the time we sat down after queuing for ten minutes for the Hewitt / Henman doubles match it starting spitting.

The umpire then announced that play would be suspended for the day due to the slick grass and it was all over at 2-1 to Hewitt / Henman.

So we headed for the shop and trawled through some old Wimbledon programme booklets of the 70’s – 80’s days before heading home a little disappointed…maybe next year it won’t rain…
