Interesting moment in the first set, where Murray asked for the hawkeye, and was correct to do so. It really swang the way that particular game seemed to be going, and the momentum changed. Obviously it's a good thing to have the technology (how I wish they'd do it in footy), but interesting to see how it can change the player's mood.


Anyway, as I speak, he's a break up in the 3rd. Not getting the easy game some seemed to think he would get, but I think these people were being a bit stupid. He should still win though (I hope not)...

Can someone answer me this.....


Hawkeye used to beep when a serve was out but very close to the line, but since the introduction of the new challenge system, the beep seems to have been retired, is this the case?


Not that I miss it or anything, I was just wondering about it the other day, as I have watched a fair amount of Wimbledon, but all of it beep free....

Thanks Ted, so in the past Cyclops would have decided whether a ball was in or out, whereas now its down to the players to challenge, for which they have a maximum of three in a set. interesting.


By the way, extremely saddened to see Gisela Dulko has been knocked out....

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By HeadNun · Posted

      Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse.

      While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.

      I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.

      I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
