Cup Final

Friend of a friend got me a ticket for the Cup Final. I had always wanted to go, but thought it was very unlikely to ever happen. So I was delighted.
Dave, Josh and I were driven down by Dan to Watford, took the train to Wembley, met up with Dave and Luke, then watched Arsenal blitz Villa 4-0. Great goals from Theo and Sanchez. The only downside was that we were with the Villa fans, so the rampant optimism dissipated to going-home-early disappointment for many all around us. We were right at the top of the stand and I loved the view of the pitch - brilliant.
So a great day out, and an experience I feel privileged to have had.
The view from the Villa end.
