Wimbledon 2008 Day 10: Mansour Bahrami/Henri Leconte

Day 10 saw us with out last online tickets for this year and we had hoped to hook up for lunch with Cilla, but she and her friend were off having adventures care of Transport for London (or rather, lack of…!) so having worked our way through the food village over the course of the fortnight, we decided to tootle around the outside courts … and we happened across trickster Mansour Bahrami and mum’s all time fave… Henri Leconte! Bless him – he honestly looks like he’s just rolled in from a night on the cognac, but we settled down to watch the guys practicing...
Sooo funny with Henri yelling things like “come on granddad, you can play better than that” and Bahrami doing his trademark catching balls in his pocket… great fun and put us in the mood for the semis…
