Yesterday was the first day of Nationals - it's wonderful to finally be playing! Our first two games were both walk-overs against low seeds, but our last game of the day was against the 4th seed and possible competitor for the title. Tight game, but we were in control for most of it and won 15-11. If you're so inclined, you can check out the scores at...

(Chilly is my team, not to be confused with Hot Chilly, which is our "B" team.) 2 more games today and at least 1 on Tuesday; if all goes according to plan we'll then have the semifinals and finals on Wednesday - which has the added benefit of being a public holiday here.
In other news, the Princess of Denmark recently had a baby girl, which is all over the news. The reason? She's from Tasmania, and met the Prince during the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Cute story, really - and there's been considerable talk that Aussies prefer the understated Danish royalty more than the insufferable British versions that are still officially the Australian head of state. Here's an article and some background.
I guess everything went according to plan...congrats:) GOod luck on Wed!

Long live the Danish monarchy. Maybe they could vote to switch away from the British.
