    Well wimbledon is the esiest for me, but thats because I travelled down the night before and stayed in central london before it, the atmosaphere is really good, depends on the day you get, up to 4 matches per day....

    My brothers house is 200yards from the courts. Hes renting it out to some russian tennis palyer and going on holiday. lol. I never really get tennis, as a spectator sport, its really boring to watch. Though it depends on whos palying to some extent.

    Southfields is the closest station, although buses will also probably run from putney and wimbledon. I hate the tennis, it makes wimbledon very difficult to live in!
    Not around too often!

    Well dad and i got men's final day tickets, for centre court (obviosuly) so that should be cool. Although wouldnt say that i want to spend £60 per ticket to see 1 match every year, suppose it should last longer than a rugby match at twickernam for the same price....i normally get a ground pass with a mate or 2, £15 for loads of tennis is a bargin!


    I love the game to be honest, play it as much as i can, enjoy watching it. A bit like golf and cricket, just end up watching for hours.

    My best m8. Josh Goodal (18) jsut got a wildcard into the main draw
    Good luck to him, i would love to play there some day, not quite good enough though

    Good luck for Josh, he is playing some italian called A. Di Mauro, he is not seeded, so that is a bit of luck! Maybe i will see him if he gets drawn against a top 5 seed...and of course if he gets through to the next round. I can't wait because i have my last two exams the day before i am going.
    that's the chicken!!!
