Why you should follow @WimbledonRoof on Twitter

Wimbledon is back in business and, thanks to the unreliable nature of the Great British summer (this heat wave can't really last, can it?), that means the retractable roof on Centre Court is on standby, too.

Well, it certainly seems more promising than an invite to the Champions' Dinner from Mr Roger Federer...

It often has a tune or two up its sleeve:
