Today, Mrs Lastlid and I visited the stadium at Old Trafford. A bit pricey at £30 quid for the two of us but it did include the museum too. Got to see the Barclays Premier League trophy, the original of course aswell as the Charity Shield. Neither of which one can see anywhere else just now.
75000 capacity stadium which looked a good deal bigger than its Liverpool FC counterpart.
The pitch was absolutely immaculate.
I would say almost all on the tour were from overseas. I thought at first there were a heap of Pinays but they were from Honkong, evidently.
After the tour we did a little shopping in what is arguably the best shopping mall in the UK, the Trafford Centre, with dinner at a place called Tampopos where Mrs Lastlid had Chicken Adobo! About the only place we could find with anything Filipino on the menu. She gave it 7/10 for authenticity.
