maybe he should have arrived earlier then. I usually get to my seat at least half hour before the match starts.

This Becks Vier is going down a bit easy. Half way through my second pint already.
I'll need to snake hiss all the way through the final session.
Now where's my burger?

Ronnie has juat walked into the bar.
I need him for my autograph collection, but don't like to bother people when they're in the hotel with friends. They're off duty.

Going to bed. Have set alarms for 9am so I don't sleep through breakfast.
Like my body doesn't wake me at 6am anyway.

35 minutes to Euston, then I've got to get a tube to Victoria and train to Croydon.
Maybe half one, quarter to two I'll get back.
