As predictable as conceding a second goal from a set piece at Upton Park, the fact that just out of sight of the camera is a heap of presents that is about the size of a landfill site has not stopped Olivia from deciding that the one thing she really wants to play with at the moment is this old United hat that she found lying around in the front room. I don't recall seeing this on any of the lists of must-have/desperately hyped gifts for this year, and had we known that all it takes to fill Olivia with joy is a scuzzy old hat we could have saved ourselves a considerable sum.

Will we learn our lesson next year? What do you think?
