Touchdown!!!

Jamie has a share in a box at the SCG for all Swans games this season, and this weekend was the first time we went. Those who know me know I don't know great deal about football, and have never really been enamoured with the game, other than going to a box and having pies, mini-burgers and beer (yes!!!). I kind of enjoy it like I enjoy going to the races - I don't watch what goes on, but I have a great time eating, drinking and socialising. We had a fun afternoon at the footy - it was a lovely day, and I was giving the zoom on our camera a great workout. Also in the box was Lucia - who is from Prague, and is marrying one of the other guys who shares in the box. A minute after she arrived we were comparing engagement rings and I knew we'd get along well. Talk about commitment though - she's making a huge effort to understand the game. Snaps for her.
J-Mo and me, hanging at the footy.

After the game, they let the masses swarm on the oval, and it was chockers. This little kiddie was just too cute though, kicking with his dad... aawww
We went to the change rooms and WAG lounge after the game, and it was kids galore. It was actually really cute to see all these massive battered and limping men kissing and cuddling their kids. A real family atmosphere, which was surprising. And the kids were going totally mental. Hilarious.
And we live ten minutes walk away from the SCG - this is what we had to tolerate while we walked through the parks home. Ah, Syd-ner-ey, you have my heart.
