Agree with Maggies comment about snooker too. Sooooooooo boring, if OH is watching it I always fall asleep.

AARRGGHHH Gymnastics yes, I like watching that, cycling, swimming all that stuff but athletics? Noooo, makes me shudder.

Mind, I think that's a throwback from the horror of school sports days. Bad enough being bullied at school because I have curly hair, but when you invariably come last in running races it gets a bit much. (To be fair, nobody, even me, had any idea I had problems with my hips back then)

ROFL @ Cath's cricket observation.

I loathe that too.

I did watch the athletics today, final day tomorrow :-D

I also like F1 and Jenson Button lives over here now, often to be seen in local co-*p, bless him.
Sorry I do like football too.
The one sport that drives me nuts and would never watch is cricket :-P
nothing exciting about a lot of men in whites rubbing a red ball up and down the front of their trousers, lol.
Tennis is no better. ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Oh gosh it certainly IS going back :-D :

I too like F1.
My younger acused me of just watching it for the crashes.
My reply: 'The cars are safer than they used to be, the drivers are extremely well paid and insured, and they don' t HAVE to do it.

I, on the other hand, get p*ss poor pay, and being a mere pedestrian, may get run over by a No7 bus. Oh - and because of the inextravegance of my pay, I have no insurance!!

Hate Wombledon and FFFootball

As for snooker-I'd rather have pins put under my nails than watch that!

Happy days,

No standing encouraging the under 13s for a few weeks .

Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :-D

Sadly I cannot abide football
Freezing on sunday mornings is not my idea of fun.

I used to like watching the wrestling on world of sport on saturday afternoons in the 1970s with my dad :-)

Isn't it Silverstone next? We need a Brit to win it, so Go Jensen!!!

(Hopefully he'll be riding high after last week)

I love Seb Vettel, he makes me smile, but I really want a McClaren to win Silverstone.

IIB yes we have spoken before (ages ago). Button drove the race of his life and I was waving all limbs that could move when he crossed the line.

I'll be interested too watch Lewis Hamilton during the next race to see if he performs any more kamikaze moves :-D
