Wimbledon

First off, SORRY for being so unloyal and not posting for what feels like a million years. One thing after another has just kept coming at me and I haven't had a moment to breath, let alone blog. 

BUT, I'm back and to celebrate my return and the onset of summer (according to the forecast- although who can say how long it will last this time?) I thought I would share some pictures of the Wimbledon tennis tournament- old school. That is, when raquets were made out of wood and there was no Eagle Eye to judge whether a ball was in or out. I was born and raised in Wimbledon until I was around 7 so the tournament has always had a special place in my heart, it truly is a British Institution.
