Wimbledon 2015

First visit to Wimbledon for three years. Centre Court again on the opening day - so we get to see the reigning champions play.

Early birthday present for Julie - 50th that is!

Got on to No. 3 Court for the opening play then spent the rest of the day watching the champions and another, bonus match.

Waiting to get on to No 3. Court

PIMMS O'Clock!

Whosever mound, hill or mountain it is these days - we were there.

Good Grief! - It's April already and this is our first outing of the year.
