Our (big) little girl

Kanga was 5 months old last week (17th) and she's abso-bloomin-lutely HUGE!

She hasn't had as much handling as she might have done so is being a bit naughty but, after last week when she kept rearing and got her leg over the lead rope and scared herself, she's just done little rears and thrown her front legs about quite a bit.

And on an altogether different note, it was the first home game of the season last night and the official opening of the new stand. Now my seat isn't in the new stand, but I get a lovely view of it. And very impressive it looked too. It has 10,000 seats and all of them were occupied. I was concerned that moving the stand back from the pitch would dilute the cauldron-like atmosphere and I expect for people sitting there it's difficult to 'feel' part of the action, but the roar was immense (although the Crumbie did win noise-wise cheering the boys on during the warm-up)
