Last Day

Fabulous time at Wimbledon.  This is the Ladies Invitation match.  Navaratalova (spelling?) still playing top match at 61, even though she and her partner lost.  The male invitation match was highly entertaining with a lot of larking about (including holding the net down).
The more serious side was the final of the Boy's Singles when Tom Drake for Britain played his heart out but lost.  A name to watch in the future.
We had a lovely pizza and glass of wine in a pavement cafe when we got off the tube at Southfield before strolling to the venue.  
Of course we did have strawberries later with a cup of tea and an eye watering expensive ice cream before catching the shuttle bus back to the station.
One of the stewards was a London fireman who was going to go on night duty in the evening.  He 'works' at Wimbledon every year.
Home very late, hence back blip
