What are you doing on your Wembley day?

Coach arrives at 7am in Bramley.
Stop off at 2 services on the way there (no toilet on the coach, how an executive coach has no toilet i dont know), have breakfast in one. back on the coach after the first one and open the first beverage.
Arrive at Wembley around 12ish.
Soak up the atmosphere on Wembley way.
around 1.30ish, take my seat in the ground, sing my heart out for the boys for 3 hours ish, hopefully ending with a trophy.
coach back at about 5.30ish, home for 10pm, then to town to celebrate (if we win).

*Insert witty banter type comment*:26414.jpg



5.00am - Get up
5.05am - Have a poo
5.20am - Shower (incorperating a shave and brushing my teeth)
5.45am - Get ready
6.30am - Minibus
Onwards - a blur more than likely

Staying in Hilton hotel in watford.

Gym/Sauna on the Saturday morning.
Find a pub somewhere/train to Wembley.

Experience the match day experience, bet on there been a drop goal in 80 minutes (there has to be one, surely?). I'll also buy a strawberry calippo for £2.80 off the rip off ice cream van.

3 quid return train back to Watford then to freshen up and go out. 2 tier stripclub icon_wink.gif

Sunday, go home, possibly with an headache. and then work in the evening remembering what should hopefully be a very good weekend.

The Skolars game on the Friday night is highly recommended.

I'm going to be in London on Friday anyway so getting train on Friday morning, meeting up with some friends and going to the Globe Theatre in the afternoon and then some dinner (this was planned several months ago and I had the feeling Rhinos were going to get to Wembley this year). Staying overnight at a friend's and then getting the tube to Wembley before getting a lift back to Leeds on Saturday night.

Probably go something like...

6am - Awaken (default programmed in awakening time)
8am - Drop off youngest at her place of work
8.15am - Drop off wife at her place of work
9am - Drop off eldest at railway station for her to go to work
9.05 am - Return home, coffee and biscuits
Rest of morning - What the hell I like, maybe do some painting, maybe some reading
2pm - Walk to mates house, choose seat in front of very large TV
4pm - Light up barbeque, party starts

Notice the relaxed nature of the day, it suits me, no travel plans to make, no tickets to check every five minutes, no finding you're sat in the middle of The Fekkwit Alcoholics Working Mens Club coach trip, no standing to let someone go past to the toilet/bar every five minutes, no breaking up at least two fights (one per half if past finals have been anything to go by), no trying to see what happened by squinting at a big screen 150 yards away, and no endless journey home afterwards.

I've paid my dues, now I relax, if I smoked I'd be puffing on a Hamlet.
