Another lie-in. I could get used to this. Pancake breakfast yum yum.
It rained and snowed for most of the day and the drive became very icy.
Our morning was spent watching Stoke City, playing Skip-Bo, playing on the X-box and doing rubicks cubes.
Early afternoon we had a cheesey Beans on toast and some festive yumminess.
This afternoon we played table tennis. Mid afternoon we travelled in the car to a football festival. Smallest was playing two games against two different teams. This took place in a huge dome with four fields and we had to stand behind netting. It was weird how the netting obstructed your view and made your eyes go a bit strange.

Smallest had a nosebleed before the first game and Huffle desperately tried to find some tissues. The place was a very clean, no paper place with hand dryers etc and a woman tried to help Huffle. First they had to find a key to open a cupboard and eventually we were handed a toilet roll. Why we couldn't just take some from the toilets I don't know. We sorted it using a freezer pack and a pack of tissues one of the mums had. The first game was against Whitby and we won 12-2. They played really well and the game went without incident. There was a break of about an hour before the next game.

This time we played Oshawa. Our team were very tired and the game ended at 4-4 though two of their goals were questionable. One didn't go over the line but the ref said it did and the other should have been kicked back to us after an injury but they scored instead. Dubious. Before the game finished, one of our players (renowned for having anger issues) got knocked down and proceeded to kick the opposition several times on purpose. This resulted in him being taken off the pitch (rightly so) but then the parents got involved shouting about how they were going to get their child to kick our children, blah blah blah. Then our angry boy's parents got involved and had to be held back by two other parents. There was lots of shouting, the game was abondoned and there were punches thrown. The police were called and we stayed well away. It was embarrassing. We think the angry boy should be taken out of the team for good. We'll see what happens!

It was around 7:45pm when we left and everyone was hungry. We went to a nice Italian restaurant on the way home and had dinner before coming home and putting the kids to bed (past 9pm!).
This evening we watched The Marigikd Hotel on tour. Very interesting.
