Wimbledon, Threesome And Rain

Best conversation exchange of the day.
Sue Barker is sat with Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe.
Wimbledon is rained off so we have been watching a documentary about Billie Jean King.
It finishes and we are back in the studio.
Sue says a little bit about how amazing it is to have them both there. Past champions and rivals, all that bollocks.
Then they all start going on about how wonderful Billie Jean is, the guys ask why she isn’t there with them and Sue Barker says,

“Ooh, wouldn’t that be wonderful? A threesome with Billie Jean on the end”.

Easy Sue! Easy!
I roared with laughter and kept going until I was coughing.
I now sound like Bonnie Tyler.
That was worth every penny of the licence fee!
Connors and McEnroe are brilliant. They bring a ‘fun’ element to stuffy Wimbledon.
It’s like they don’t quite get it.
Very similar is the character in the film Best In Show, who commentates on a ‘Crufts’-like event as if it’s an NFL game.
Brilliant! Wimbledon is funny!

Today really feels like a Sunday.
It’s been SO gloomy all day.
Constant, pissing rain. Cold greyness.
A totally monochrome day.
Even the fucking clips from Wimbledon were in black and white and too small for the TV screen.
Anything earlier than the 1990’s had huge black borders and short shorts.
