I had never been to Wimbledon before but with such a sunny day and Murray mania hitting Britain I couldn't resist. I didn't know what to expect but I took my flip camera to see what it was all about.

Since I didn't have tickets, and couldn't afford to buy them off the internet, I queued and joined some of those most entertaining people over the course of the day. I couldn't believe that people would wait sometimes overnight to catch a glimpse of centre court.

While Wimbledon talk normally centers on the players and their celebrity fans I thought these dedicated people were the best story out there.
