I've been spending most evenings of these past couple of weeks in front of the telly watching Wimbledon. Love love love the tennis season! Tennis is the only sport I can actually watch and follow, and it's probably more for the drama and personalities than the actual sport itself. It can be very pretty too, as you can see.
