It's time now for the chipping forecast, issued by Folding Pocket on behalf of Andrew Cotter, Eddie Pepperall and special guest Ian Carter.

Hello there, you're all very welcome to this, the latest episode of the chipping forecast, a podcast which is just catching fire. I mean, it's taking the world by storm, a podcast about which they're saying, latest episode available and upload complete, and also, meh. So, hello, I'm Andrew Cotter here at Wimbledon for the second week.

0:57.0

I confess that Wimbledon has beaten me.

1:00.1

It's broken me.

1:01.0

I've been broken twice in the last set.

1:03.6

I'm now just an empty shell of a man wandering around,

1:06.7

muttering stats about what Yannick's sinner has for breakfast.

1:10.6

But the other two in this great

1:12.7

Scottish Open. Eddie Peppel, so Eddie Peppel could stay at home a couple of weeks ago for the

1:22.6

Belfrey and such is his, I think, I'm not sure if it's still the case, but such is his property-owning empire that, can you stay at home for this one as well? Do you still have a little pieterterre in Edinburgh?

And Ian has paid for Premier Wi-Fi to do this.

2:17.3

I had a good night's sleep comical delay where we talk over each other. Excellent. I'm looking forward to this already.

2:36.5

Good. I had a good night's sleep last night.

2:39.2

Thank you. Yes. Did you fling yourself onto the bed with a sort of a really happy smile like they're doing the ads for Premier in?

2:45.9
