GEF #19: Wimbledon

Well I seemed to have disappeared last Friday, and I do apologise for my lack of a place for last week, HOWEVER! I am back.

 

This week it is the green and luscious; All England Lawn and Tennis Club in Wimbledon, South London.

 

I write this post on the day our only hope of a British winner goes out of the Championships. Every game we seem to invent, we inevitably loose at. Don’t even get me started on the football…

 

Wikiquote for strawberry and cream goodness:

The Championships at Wimbledon, or simply Wimbledon, is the oldest tennis  tournament in the world and is generally considered the most prestigious. It has been held at the All England Club in the London suburb of Wimbledon since 1877. It is one of the four Grand Slam tennis tournaments, and the only one still played on the game’s original surface, grass, which gave the game of lawn tennis its name.
