Great night at Old Trafford

A dry day

My son and I had a couple of tickets to watch the Caraboa Cup Quarter Final at Old Trafford between Manchester United and Colchester United. They were gifted to us by another son who lives in Colchester, so the tickets were in the ‘away’ end. I had to restrain myself when United scores three goals but the Colchester fans were in good voice and it was fun to be amongst them.

It was touch and go whether I would make the trip because my back went into a severe spasm at the weekend. I was able to get an appointment with the Chiropractor and a deep massage, which helped to ease the worst of the pain. I am glad I made it since it was the first time I had been at the Stadium when it was nearly full. Quite different from the Tour I did when it was empty.
