Anticipatory patter pings off the walls of No1, as the ball girls and ball boys run out to take their positions. The usual conversations. It’s nice out today. Have I got time to go to the loo? Have I got time to go to purchase a large jug of Pimms and a couple of pints of French Equilibrium Shifter? In order: you can say that again, it’s like 1976 out here; nope, you should have thought about that before you sat down; yes, but go easy on the fruit. And then that patter crackles into a roar, as the two players take to the court!
