Murray is playing a great game. A real thinking and attacking one.

I now take that back after losing that break of service.

 

[numptynoelle]

It's too tense, I keep wimping out and watching the cycling...and then switch back and peek at the tennis from behind a cushion :redface3:

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

I'm feeling a little bit sick I have to admit

 

[teapot]

Tennis on tv, cycling on laptop.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Same in our household, except that my laptop is on here!!

 

[numptynoelle]

I'm still behind the cushion and rapidly flipping channels.

I'll have to calm down at some point or I'll never get to sleep tonight!

(ETS: Yey for Jason Kenny!)

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

I channel hopped then. I'm getting jittery...COME ON MURRAY!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Get in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[teapot]

Another two to go... *twitches*

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

I've had to get breakfast as I'm fading. The tension is killing me.

How are you faring?

Oooohhh, exquisite shot

 

[numptynoelle]

Argh. Can't watch!! Going to lie down in a darkened room... *gibbers*

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

FFS beeb

I can't cope

 

[teapot]

I've got chocolate digestives to munch on. Murray isn't helping my nerves though...

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Plain or milk?

 

[teapot]

Plain, nom nom nom

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

A girl after my own heart. I used to put them in the fridge too. The packet lasted a few minutes longer that way!

Don't like the way this 2nd set is going........

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Oh my, Cavendish! That was amazing.

 

[teapot]

No, bit worrying. They both look exhausted too.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

When you look at who Potro beat to get through he's had a tougher ride, but he hasn't played a 5 setter since 2014 so if it goes further than 3 sets (which is looking likely) I think Murray would stand a better chance. Who knows though, will it become a mental battle for Andy?

 

[teapot]

I like Delpo but he's getting a bit cocky. Come on Murray, wake up!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

For god's sake Murray. I still think that the further it goes Murray should have the advantage. I do wish he'd won that set though, match could have been over quicker and I could get some sleep!!!!!

 

[teapot]

Yes, hopefully he'll suddenly pick up!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

My eyes will need matchsticks soon. Can you get glasses with them specially fitted I wonder?

Getting a bit dull at the moment.

 

[teapot]

Cycling was getting good until Cav made a mistake and got pulled in by the judges.

 

[teapot]

Now this is a bit better, come on Andy!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

I'm renewed by a quick shower and that fact that he's now taken the 3rd set

 

[teapot]

Come on Andy, I knew there was a reason why I'm always out for his finals

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

FGS, why? (didn't mean you teapot, that was meant for Murray)

Win this set please!!!!!

If this match didn't involve a gold medal I'd be in bed by now.

 

[teapot]

I wouldn't care nearly as much if it didn't involve a medal

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

I can't be the only person feeling very frustrated by this game.
