Metaphorically, yes. it felt that way.

it wasn't raining though, it was hot, windy and stupidly busy. all taxis and posh twats in posh cars trying to occupy the next milimetre of road space by any means possible.

the futility of people's lives is a pitiful thing, yet somewhat amusing when you happen to be on a bike.

every fucking year I have to deal with the brunch of tennis-loving twats coming down to Wimbledon, and especially, ESPECIALLY, those blind fucking old twats at Wimbledon station thinking they're all confused when the destination is right in front of them, posh people in shirt, jean, leather shoes and big Wayfarer glasses thinking they've become posh just by attending fucking Wimbledon.

every. fucking. year.

You know, when the Wombles was on (on British telly mind, not the actual Wombles), Wimbledon Common got quite littered due to kids throwing rubbish there to 'help' the Wombles.

Maybe the Wombles have moved to Haven Green in Ealing then because the cunts that sit around in the sun there seem incapable of using any of the bins provided..

I can't believe you're having such a downer on Wimbledon. I'm in Southfields, which is the main tube station for the championships, and I love this time of year because:

a) the worse the traffic is, the smarter I feel for being a cyclist

b) when there are even pedestrian traffic jams, I feel smarter still

c) the fact that the shitty District Line is so rammed prevents me being even tempted to use it

d) I know I could rent my house out to a mug for a fortune, though I've never bothered

e) Mad John, our local 'character' wheels his bicycle around, wearing only shorts, a vast beard and a straw boater, bellowing at terrified Japanese tourists

f) the parking restrictions are ultra-fierce, except for residents

g) as I mentioned in some other thread, I got to sit near Victoria Pendleton on Centre Court last week

and h) although tennis is a bit middle-class, the corporate-cunt-count is lower at Wimbledon than at most similar summer sporting events, and most of the people there are proper fans who got tickets through local clubs

i) Come on, Timmy! Oh...

The one advantage for this stupid sport I can see is that Hagen-Das were giving out free ice-cream in front of the big screen in Broadgate circle this week. Oh and I guess the fact that it's NOT football makes it useful too.

you missed the best bit, sitting on that hill and cheering for any non-british player whilst it is packed with english 'fans' desperately searching for their saviour.

I am a bit biased though, I love tennis.
