Nope, definitely 10:30am (GMT)
Unless the match on at 9:00am GMT drags on or is over in a flash.

Iris am down in South West and rain is so fierce cannot see houses opposite and winds have brought down my fence! Goodness knows what it's like in your neck of the woods!
Lost part of the roof and now the rain is chucking it down. Finally got through to insurance company who have told us someone will contact us within 48 hours, meanwhile put a polythene sheet over the roof............yeah right, in this weather!!!! On MW to keep my sanity!!

missed it due to the storm. Was too preoccupied with the windows threatening to blow in, in my top floor flat, and the debris falling off the roof. Followed it via Neil Harman's tweets, couldn't have coped with Andy trauma + the storm too! Haven't ventured out yet to even see what the damage is. Too depressing.

Sorry to see and hear that the awful weather has caused many of you problems including the fires in Melbourne where some of my close family live. Thank you though for the link to the sport ha ha website. Really good picture and enjoyed the match as tense as it was in the first set; particularly as I had no inane comments from has beens! Take care out there Murraysworld!

Hope everyone safe and sound with the nasty weather some of you are experiencing... sorry to hear that. Right now where I live it's -17 deg. C with windchill of -27 deg.
Got up at 04:00am to watch, and as if that wasn 't enough of a shock to my system I had to watch Andy go down to 1-5 in 1st set! Too bad he couldn't clinch it after fighting back... but all's well that ends well.
If the match tomorrow is 10:30am UK time, that means I can have a lie-in until 05:30am my time...!
Just watched his press conference... he isn't concerned about niggles.

Yes we have had very strong gusts of wind too. Forth Road Bridge closed. lots of damage and many trees blown down blocking roads. The council workers have been out cutting them and removing them from the roads. Some gusts over 100mph. Calmer now but mor wind expected tonight. (I live in Fife.)

Can't believe it took him 3 sets to put Kuku away. I slept through the match because of the time difference. I am sort of saving myself for the AO. Last time I was literally a walking talking zombie as I had to stay up most nights so that I could follow all of Andy's matches. The final was especially brutal. Not even a wink before the match. Afterwards, Andy went into a mental slump and so did I. <sigh>
This time, I am kind of half ready for the AO. The less I think about it, the better I feel. Lol.

As I've said many times - no predictions! Let's all of us stay cool and expect the best.
