Tonight we both hurried from work, met on the tube and spent the evening at Wimbledon.  This was SUCH an English event:  Pims cocktails at the stands, all the players dressed in only white, real grass playing courts and the incredibly serious & well-outfitted line judges and ball retrievers.  After waiting in the world’s longest, yet most efficient queue, we were able to purchase ground passes for just £14 each and this allowed us to go into the unreserved seats (there were plenty!) of all but the biggest courts.  But the real question is….are we prepared to camp overnight in tents for tickets to the biggest games?
