I would love to go to England and what better time to go than during the upcoming Wimbledon season. Actually seeing tennis played at the oldest of the major tennis championships.
I think it would be great to be right there amongst all the current tennis greats at the All England Lawn Tennis Association. Being able to watch the action live would be so exciting. Ordering tickets to go would be as easy as going to Wimbledon tennis tickets.
I must also admit that the fact that members of the Royal Family could be seen is somewhat of a draw for me. However, even if I did not get a chance to show off my curtsy being in the crowd and watching such a celebrated event in person is reason enough to be there. I played tennis in high school and if I can ever get the time I would love to play again so who knows maybe if I were there in person I could pick up a trick or two…
While attending the tournament I would also take the chance to check out the museum that is on site. This museum is on the 2008 shortlist for European Museum of the Year. They also have a "walk-through" of the men's dressing room as it was in the 1980's with John McEnroe! I wonder if anything is dented.

I have a suprise for you m8. come on ova ! x ...
While I am not nearly the tennis fan that you are... I did get to work in Guest Services for the Lipton (now called the Rado maybe) in Miami about 10 years ago. It was fun and we got free tickets to a couple of matches.
My Sister made it to Wimbledon years ago, she says it is an experience she will never forget. If you do want to go, you should plan ahead for the tickets they go quickly I believe.
