I'm glued to the telly when Wimbledon is on I'm afraid - not the women's game but i like some of the doubles matches too.

Have been following it since forever - though I do remember missing the final when Arthur Ashe won- back in god know's whenever (sometime in the 70's) as mum had decided we'd have a day out at Howarth, doing the Bronte tour. I remember sitting in a café having afternoon tea and hearing it on the radio...

I even had Top Trumps Tennis player cards at Junior school - friend Charlotte had them too but no-else! One of the best cards was the Italian Adriano Panatta and another was Vitas Gerulaitis...!
