Hello Wembley!

I was lucky enough to have been at Wembley Stadium today and to take part in one of their tours. It was all very exciting and I got a little giddy wandering around inside the stadium absorbing it all.  


I had been to both old and new Wembley many times for football matches and concerts. But to get to see the changing room and players shirts hanging, to be able to walk through the players tunnel, see the dug-outs and see the famous pitch was very exciting!  The geezer bird in me came out and I was half-tempted to start chanting En-ger-land! En-ger-land! En-ger-land! I did ask if we could run on to the pitch but I got told no. Obviously! I did get to chant, "Hello Wembley!" as I am pure cheese and it would have been rude not to given that I was in one of the greatest stadiums in the world.


All I needed was David Beckham in his England kit and I would really have been in the Theatre of Dreams!
