We got to go our own way there both for the final and Commonwealth games. Although we did have a mega queue to get in for the games. Security was immense. We had to queue to be checked by the army which was fine but it was teeming it down! I suppose it was classed as 2 minor teams for the cup final being ICT v Falkirk. If one of the main players had been there, I expect we would have been much more controlled getting to Hampden. I like Wembley stadium, just don't enjoy going to London any more. I have been fortunate to be in the shaded side both times I have been. I would hate being in full sun. You were sat behind us the first time we went, Wakey! Mind you, I liked the old Wembley but that was the exuberance of youth. It was exciting to go to the capital then and the atmosphere was brilliant. I wouldn't have liked it as an adult. I find Hampden much easier to handle. Plus I like my breaks in Glasgow (and Edinburgh). I could visit those cities time and again and never get bored. It's so strange because I hate cities in general and especially London but I have I have a lot of holidays and breaks there. I counted nearly 40 (I know you can trump that, Wakey!) so that's enough for me. Although, I would go back to Wimbledon at the drop of a hat, done that 4 times. A day there is magical to me. Queen's, too, I need to do that again!
