Footy fanatics

You know you are a little fanatical when you dress your oldest grandchild like this for the grand final, in a year when your team isn't even playing.

Most of you will you know that Collingwood has made it into the GF this year!

And we have decided to watch the game with our little junior pie and the family.

We felt that tickets at the top of the southern stand would not be a good idea. Wayman's bad eye sight would mean he wouldn't see the ball, and I probably wouldn't even make it to my seat, due to my fear of heights! We are leaving the barracking at the game to others, do us proud Kate!

So we will watch it at home, with C and his cousin [his sister will be in bed].

His 2 and 1/2 year old cousin has an interesting mixture of chants that he is practising.

"Go pies" is often followed by "BUDDY!!!!!"

Granny has forbidden one that is something about crows and dresses. Where do they learn these things?

And this year we will remember not to put the bowl of chips between the adults and the television set.
