abide with me--felt the weight of history on my shoulders.
had my two daughters,grand daughter,daughter in law and Mrs. D.D. round for the game,grand daughter aged 6 had home shirt,blue socks trousers and shoes,two scarves and flag.
Had a bottle of very nice champers on the rocks,and when Carlos hoisted the pot,eldest daughter popped the cork in perfect synchronicity,afraid to say I lost it completely.
Also it was wonderful to see all the blues on the road out the door,singing and generally acting daft.
Was at Newcastle in'68, Wembley in '55 '56 and 76, Prater stadium in '70, but watching the emotion in my offspring was the best ever.
