Wimbeldon has begun and we plan to see a couple of days of matches by purchasing a ground pass.  The weather on day one is not great but we have to go to the Indian Embassy to purchase visas for our 10 days there on the way home.  We purchase some more credit on our Oyster cards which allow us to travel on the undergropund and busses with a cheaper fare.  We arrive at the Embassy at 11.45am and just make the cut as the queue tickets are terminated at 12.  The waiting room ...
