Victory at last!!

After months of trying, many heavy defeats and shipping in countless goals Anna and her team 'the Fakenham Under 8's' second team finally secured a very well earned victory. A sneaky 2-1 win against Shouldham. I celebrated it like Norwich had just won the cup at Wembley! The best bit was as the whistle went she rang the length of the pitch, jumped in my arms and with a beaming smile said 'I cant believe we won Dad, I really can't, this is the coolest thing ever!' I am delighted for all the boys (and girl!) in the team who have worked so hard. Let's hope it breeds some confidence and they can go on an get that second win. We know how to live us Hammonds - afterwards we celebrated by walking the dog by the river in Fakenham. Anna's prize for this victory is tonsillitis and a dose of antibiotics as she is quietly feeling sorry for herself on the couch watching a film as we speak. Get well soon Wiggle - you have given your Dad a great memory..
