IDB

autumnhearth wrote:"Or they just sat there." Says the husband. Pshh. Does Daniel James Howell ever *just* sit somewhere? Later thought: maybe it's to mess with our Where's Waldo-ing. Most recent realization: they are sat that way so that Dan could get the proper selfie angle of them with the court in the background in the right order. Duh. Or umm they just sat there I guess.

They were sponsored by Instagram precisely to take selfies / to be seen (by an online audience) at the event. It's all part of the spon plan.

Sidenote: I love how Daniel has his drink on with the Pimms, while it appears that Phil is drinking some sort of sweet confection that requires a domed lid. /speculation

uglyamerican true that. But take another look at the pic, they both have domed lids (and Phil was looking forward to taking in the ritual of Pimms and strawberries and cream). Aww bless him, Dan tagged not only Phil but Roger Frederer in that photo, lol.

Can't believe y'all spotted them on TV/some Phans that were actually at the final saw them in the crowd and took creepshots I was too blind/engrossed in the match to find them, I was desperate to take an exclusive pic for IDB as well (since I'm not present anywhere else in the Phandom). They were obviously a looooot further forward than me though!

I was surprised how casual their outfits were but they did both look lovely.

P.S. all the drinks had domed lids so am assuming Phil had Pimms too, uglyamerican!

I don't think anyone creepshoted them? They are just in the background of random people's instagrams .

Ah I thought people who were actually at the match had spotted them and that's where the pics had come from!

WHEN WILL THE GAMING CHANNEL RETURN FROM WAR

Aw they should have planned better, imagine if they had released a vid on today of all days of them (badly) playing some terrible flash tennis game, or even a wii sports throwback. What a wasted opportunity for hilarious trolling, I'm shaking my fist in the general direction of London rn.

OMG - this made me literally laugh out loud. Thank you for this.

I was going to post something along the same lines but then worried if I was just being greedy as we got DH and AP videos this week. However, it has been OVER A WEEK since the last DAPG vid and I'm suffering

A golf video would put me out of my misery

Seriously. Either continue filling your Instagram quota or give us a gaming vid boys! I don't care if it's selfish.

blackdenim did you have fun?

They don't usually upload this early, right? So there is still a possibility that we'll get a gaming video today.

Was thinking the same about DAPG, I really want another golf video, there's just something too cute about their flirting banting when they play that game.

I'm also dying for them to play Crash Bandicoot - I don't care how just do it boys pls

I'm sad Phil didn't post an aesthetic full body pic of his outfit - when will he bless me?

I had an amazing time thanks autumnhearth! Seeing a Wimbledon final was literally on my bucket list! Drank loads of Pimms and ate loads of strawberries so I truly was living my best life... the only thing that could have made it better was if Nadal was playing (or I'd spotted the boys )!

Good point on the tennis game idea. Nintendo might not have it for the Switch yet, but there's a hilarious tennis game with the Mario cast all with special moves, it looks a lot of fun. Best tennis game had to be by the electronics company Philips back in 1993 where you played as Victor Player. There are fancy ones with the star players in too.

"Dan and Phil Play Pong" for like 30mins, I'm crying

not play... Dan versus Phil.

Just because you can guarantee that Dan will get really into it and they'll be getting heated over such a basic game

Totally gonna change the subject here, soz.

Been working on something for a while and thought you guys might like it. I have made a few friends from the phandom who don't live in London, so when we met up I took them on “Dan and Phil tour” of London as we were shopping in the area and I knew the areas pretty well. They really enjoyed it so I decided to sit down and properly map out some routes for both of the London DITL’s so that other people in the phandom could enjoy it. I included all of the stops in the videos bar ones near their flat (obviously because that would be weird).

I've finally finished the route from the first london day in the life and I'll put the images under a spoiler. If anyone is coming to London any time soon then try it out and let me know if it's good! I'm doing the Festive DITL now, but it'll take about 2 weeks because mapping it out does take some time! (i know, i seem to have too much time on my hands, but it's just a bit of fun).
okay, carry on

This is amazing! I'm going to London in December so I might try it out (along a warm festive drink from Starbucks because why not go full on ).

I see that now, a cheeky, almost invisible domed lid to confound my speculation.

Please do I'm just working on the festive DITL map now - I even know which sofa they sat on because I go there quite a bit so will try and put the exact one on there! I've taken two lots of friends to the same place and they loved taking a selfie on the sofa and recreating the tree!

This is "Game of Thrones" new season debut night here in the US (and I'm assuming in the UK,) so there are themed parties to attend - perhaps that might toss a wrench in the works (I may or may not be going to one after "War For the Planets of the Apes" later this afternoon.)

I'm going to London next week (SO. FUCKING. EXCITED.) and have some time to kill on my own... i'm genuinely considering going to some of these places

(if anyone knows where to get bubble tea near Westminster hmu before Thursday)

I love this so much!! We kind of did something similar when we spent a weekend in London for my eldest' birthday last November!

What I need is someone to map out the Japhan DITL as I'm going to Tokyo soon and fully intend to visit all the sights featured!

We don't get Game of Thrones until tomorrow night...I'm counting down the minutes!!

thank you so much for spending your time on it and sharing! it looks fascinating, I'll definitely save it for later. really hope I'll have a chance to try it out next year

Go for it, Traf. Square is definitely worth going to as it's a really nice place (plus you can see the big thumb that Phil bought a replica of), same with Leicester Square gardens, nice places to people watch.

As for bubble tea, I found this on google: Biju Bubble Tea Room - 45 Old Compton St, Soho, London W1D 6HQ

Yes, someone should to the Japhan one as I also intend to go one day. I think they visited most of the tourist spots so shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

I'll get the Festive one up as soon as it's finished, then you have two to do you could easily do both on the same day as they arent that far apart from each other. Glad you liked it (already been called creepy on tumblr - not sure why seeing as the places are all tourist spots, even the BBC has a tour and a cafe which is open to the public).
