It was much more the place, and what people where doing that did it. I just didn't feel part of it all, somehow detached like I was watching some BBC4 documentary - with quite voice over man.

Not living near the ground, or caring about the score, I don't tend to keep tabs on these things...) (Not that I had the faintest idea that Man Utd were playing at home.

I think we broke all of those rules, except 2 - coming along the M62, we had the benefit of those big electric signs, which sent us the long way round - onto the M602, and through Eccles. It seemed like a dogleg, but we didn't have much trouble getting into a car park, or finding a space. We broke rule 5, but we went to the opposite extreme - we arrived at about 3pm, when the worst of the crush was starting to leave, hence the parking was opening up, and the restaurant (La Tasca) had a whole empty section at the back. The kids haven't done tapas before, but even the olive bread seemed to be a hit, and Daisy turns out to love king prawns - who knew?! Hmmm.
