I was offered Court 1 tickets for the final Sunday a couple of years ago..... didn't bother with them though and queued up instead for one of the earlier days. I'm sure you'll have a great time anyway.... you get the same experience whenever you go!

Yep Wimbledon does get me excited! Who else is planning on queuing this year and for what days? I'm planning on getting tickets for the first Friday... so I'll try to be in the queue for about 9 or 10am on the Thursday morning. Gotta buy a new tent before then lol!

Whilst we're talking about Wimby, I can finally post a few pics from last year now I've got bluetooth enabled on my computer..... They're not very good quality cus they were done on my phone:

The "holding area" for us nuts before they'd properly organised the queue...


A quick one of me whilst queuing....


Court 1 at night... We'd just put up the tent and were waiting for the pizza delivery man!...


Another one of me taken on the pick nick area at the top of Murray Field / Henman Hil...


The famous draw board...


Me inside Centre Court...


This was the Hewitt match...


A slightly closer photo of Lleyton himself (bit blured though)...


And then the rain came...


Typical though really... the weather was lovely whilst we were waiting around but then it turned a bit nasty when we were in watching. Ah well, all part of the fun Smile

Whilst we were queueing on the Thursday there was the Murray V. Stepenek match going on. We could hear the cheering but obviously couldn't see anything. Felt a bit weird actually that something like that was going on just a few metres away from you and yet all you could do was listen to it on the radio lol.

Anyway, hope ya enjoyed those Smile

Have been to wimbledon before and were offered no.1 courts for the last sunday this year, but turned them down.  Would be so annoying just hearing the final but not seeing it.  We are planning to queue on the middle saturday, after camping over on friday.  Should be fun.
