It was either watch from the Top Balcony or watch from a tree in the park behind the recently demolished Park Stand.<BR/><BR/>The Top Balcony is not the best to sit in if you have vertigo, like I do. Believe me its not laziness, those escalators are needed.Paul Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15186381285421305396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15083755.post-1168524060903817192007-01-11T14:01:00.000+00:002007-01-11T14:01:00.000+00:00The entry for evening kick-offs is a work of geniu...The entry for evening kick-offs is a work of genius.

I have a colleague whose husband has MS. They went to see Muse at Wembley Arena and they chose seats so he wouldn't have to stand all night. Their seats were in the gods though, and they had to do a lot of walking. He had to crawl up the last few steps. No one needs that, and escalators (or lifts, perhaps) would have spared him that embarrassment. <BR/><BR/>Lazy scousers, however, should walk.<BR/><BR/>STswisslethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16708248700851998044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15083755.post-1168451985726721962007-01-10T17:59:00.000+00:002007-01-10T17:59:00.000+00:00Thanks Swiss.
