Here we are again: the semi-finals of Wimbledon. We’re almost at the peak of that beautiful stretch of summer when every English man and woman become strawberry scoffing tennis connoisseurs; tennis puns lighten the muggy summer air and the Williams sisters scare all of us.
To top off this annual gloriousness, we even have a British person with a chance of winning! National morale is at an all-time high, sitting proudly and distinguished inbetween those familiar warnings of floods, droughts, heatwaves and mutated flu strains that visit us – unwanted – each year.
As Rory put it, it’s ‘Andymonium’.
Some people don’t like his face, but we’re proud of you lad, dead proud!
In celebration of all of this, I have selected a clip that harks back to a period of British cunningness and tennis domination. Please enjoy, have a great weekend and use the phrase “Hard cheese old boy” for the remainder of the summer!
