We got up at an ungodly hour, drove through pouring rain into the city, spent the whole morning being &#8220;audience&#8221;, then at arpund 4 o&#8217;clock, the kids were suddenly thrown into a back room to dance. I think that if they make it into the movie at all, it&#8217;ll be a miracle.<br \/>\nWe didn&#8217;t get home until later than I&#8217;d hoped, by which time I was way too tired to drive down to Wollongong for the <a href=\"http:\/\/wollongongstitchnbitch.blogspot.com\/\">Stitch n Bitch<\/a> Christmas do.
