Women’s World Cup
Is on in Sydney and thereabouts right now. And I am not able to view ANY OF IT. Even though many of the games are dead easy to get to and cheap as chips.1
There are deadlines, there is packing, then there’s leaving of beloved Sydney and beautiful and wondrous brand new digs. So no women’s cricket for Justine. But next time, next time I will enjoy every second of it!2
I hope that the Sydney based cricket fan readers of this blog, of which I happen to know there are at least three, manage to get to some of the matches in my stead. Lucky ducks!
I get back to the never ending rewrite of tortuous horror wonderful rewrite of my next book what comes out in October and is in no way annoying me at all.
I leave you with a photo by the lovely Sarah Dollard taken from deck of brand new digs:

- Though had I gone to today’s Oz v NZ match at North Sydney oval I would have spent much time huddling against the rain. [↩]
- Also, thank Elvis for the radio. [↩]
