a day out in town with martin. a big sale was going on everywhere in town and i got myself a pair of hi-tec waterproof trekking boots for a good 25 pounds. they were kept on standby cos my current china made trekking boots were going to break anytime after walking for the past 8 months.
the match ended with a disappointing 1-all score
cant believe that we actually came so far to watch this game and the happiest thing is that... we did it! before the game starts, we were like enjoying the atmosphere, giggling to ourselves and enjoying every passing moment. how very nice!
really really excited to go in and watch them play live
arrived at anfield stadium
Adel and Martin - Adel is a very committed liverpool fan. she moved to liverpool just to be close to her dream team and she will convince anyone to jump ship to support the red team.
martin - our CS host. i really like him. he has a great sense of english humour and also, he introduced us to lots of good movies, the catherine tate show, crazy taxi on PS 2 and Tetley makes tea bags make tea!
on 2 Jan, met Adel outside LFC store to go anfield stadium watch liverpool play against wigan.
on the train to martin's house. it was new year's eve and all the trains and buses were to end early that day (at abt 8.30pm) for the new year countdown. many people were in good mood that day including us. we were thrilled!
finally arrived on the ground of liverpool. hooray!!! we received warm welcome from most of the ground staff that night
