Went on my own (exciting and scary) - rest of the family went to Madame Tussauds. Dad hired a car from work to get us to Exeter station and we got a puncture coming back to the A38 (scary)

Match no. 420. Two-nil down at half-time Hammers fought back to level the scores with a David Cross header in the last minute. Malcolm Macdonald scored both Arsenal goals.
