How lovely to be going to Wimbledon again too!! Your little charms are such lovely souvenirs of your summery days there - what a lovely idea. It will be great to hear all about your day there this year and to see your photos.

The engineer took one look and asked how long it had been there...well I would guess as long as there had been a phone in the house.....probably 1960/70s!!We moved here in 1983 and have not changed it. All fixed now and we are up to date!

That is, after you finish your colored cards, hee hee!<br />Several years back, I had an opportunity to attend a professional women's event at La Costa, and agree, it's amazing to see how the "real" players play.

I watched Murray last night at the French Open, I do hope he does well at Wimbledon.<br />Your little charms are beautiful and what lovely reminders of your visits.

Wonderful to have you "back"...Hello Jane,<br /><br />Wonderful to have you "back" :)! And I am all in for tennis (not as a player but a keen watcher), and I always check Wimbledon in telly. I remember that from my childhood already, it is a summer tradition of some sort to check the games. My dad played tennis and loved to watch every single game. Lucky you to get into the action :) and I am looking forward to hearing and seeing your inside report!<br /><br />Sunny days!<br /><br />Yours,<br />Mia<br /><br />P.S. Keep a close eye on our Jarkko Nieminen, he's a sweetheart and a great tennis player too!Miahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17091011579531371814noreply@blogger.com
