    More adventures in Manchester

    A friend of mine invited me to Manchester again for another wedding Event, It was at the function suite at the City of manchester stadium (where the 2002 Commonwealth games were held) during the course of the day I managed to get a shot of me in the actual stadium (to which access to on non match days is strictly not allowed for security reasons) however "that Jock" was allowed full unrestricted access to the pitch!! Ah the power!!!

    That is a great picture, and the doublet looks excellent.

    Did you play in the Stadium? I bet it would have been great for trying out the acoustics!

    A great photo, Darren. These opportunities are far too good to be missed - grab 'em every time! Take care, Ham.
