Fairie or Elf, Klippe is a guardian to all those walking lonely moorland at night. A spritely fellow who dances in front and behind the traveller to ensure a safe journey

@365scoresMX Good news if true. It’s also interesting that most people don’t know the US approved a bailout for Argentina, of $20 billion, in 2025. There are some serious questions to be asked. https://t.co/zPWOo7B4F5
Djokovic d. Felix Auger-Aliassime 7-6(10) 3-6 6-3 6-7(4) 7-6(4)
The longest men's quarterfinal at Wimbledon.
5 HOURS 15 MINUTES.
Novak is into his EIGHTH CONSECUTIVE Wimbledon semifinal.
That number is insane. Even crazier when you consider he's 39 years old.
It's his 266th career win over a top 10 player.
✅55th Slam SF (extending his record)
✅15th Wimbledon SF
Some age... some don't.
Novak is Benjamin Button.

Novak Djokovic not happy with a tournament supervisor as they just announced they will be closing the roof at 7:40 during his match with Aliassime at Wimbledon
“The other day you didn’t want to close it until 8:30. Now you want to close it. You don’t want to get to 8:30? It’s 7:40 now. We can play a whole nother set outdoors. We’re an outdoor tournament.”
*the supervisor says something inaudible about Jannik’s match*
“With Jannik, I don’t care what happens in his matches. I’m talking about our match right now.”
“You remember the first round, you didn’t close it til like 8:20. Now you want to close it at 7:40. Where’s the consistency?”
“You’re so proud of your rules and you’re not sticking to any kind of rules. You have no idea what the rule is.”
Felix is also saying he wants the roof to stay open.
In both my native Scots language and adopted Cumbrian dialects, 'con' is squirrel (red squirrel).
Squirrel is frequently seen as a trickster figure, but having it living near your home protests against malevolent beings.
