I never 'get' watching the tennis, for example.

I've had a particular dislike for Tennis ever since I was "removed" from Queens Club for shouting at Stefan Edberg.

I was a ballboy at Wimbledon in 1975, court 8, got hit on the knee by a serve from "Emperor" Roscoe Tanner, swelled up to the size of a medicine ball :eek:

Out of interest, what sports to people follow, if any?

My favourites are F1, MotoGP and athletics; like but not favourites: track cycling, swimming, football (World Cup/European Cup/Champions League only), American football (blame DH, high scoring games only), rowing, diving, speedway (but only watched live), skiing, bobsleigh. Not interested: tennis, golf. Don't like: cricket.

Am an avid fan of Netball, watch 'Superleague' on Sky, used to play, and basketball. Also like rugby, athletics, swimming and sometimes watch Wimbledon tennis when the top seeds play. Don't like cricket or golf, too slow. Occasionally watch football when the boys are home just to be sociable.

I've had kabaddi explained to me many times. It's like british bulldog meets volleyball meets wrestling. Any wiser? Oh, and you're only allowed in the other half for one breath. So you have to shout kabaddilabaddikabaddi over and over again to prove you're not breathing in.

I thought DH was making it up.

I hope everyone has had a nice day. I've walked the dog so far, I've exhausted myself. Goodnight!

I’ll put £10 on that PN; Now are you anyway after last night?

I really really really wish that the airport was on strike. The house has somehow gotten overheated, and I’ve got the LR window open, which is fine until I fall asleep and then get woken up by the next plane to fly over :mad:

Going to try again!
