In other news


We dragged our three-year-old to the W League grand final last Saturday.

Between complaints, she ignored the football and watched a DVD.

It rained.

We all got wet.

Our team lost.

But it was really good to see that, unlike last year, they packed the suit for the strangely disturbing piggytailed girl Sydney Football Club mascot, Sydnee, instead of the boy (called Syd).

Someone was thinking!

Maybe this was why unlike last year my daughter didn't stalk the mascot for most of the game, demanding hugs and pushing other kids away until I reached the point of utter mortification and carried her to the other end of the stand. I'm sure it's nothing to do with her being a year older...
