headingley stadium
today i went to see england play usa in our first game of the world cup. there's a cricket ground near to where i live called headingley carnegie stadium which opened it's gates to allow football fans to watch the match on their big screen. they didn't, however, open their minds to the option of fans bringing their own alcohol to the event. to get around this we hatched a cunning plan which involved buying cheap beer in the local off-licence and passing it through the gates into the rucksack that housed this camera. no queueing and paying exorbitant prices for us. the match itself was neither a complete success or a complete failure (in that it finished 1-1) except to me who had bet that the argentines would win and the english would draw today's fixtures. i figured that way if england won i'd be happy, and if england drew at least i'd make a bit of profit. of course i'd still prefer england to win, but the extra £10.24 in my pocket makes it a little easier to take.
