It took Mrs H years to realise i always booked our holidays when it was International breaks, she'd regularly ask "who are City playing this week?" Used to say it's a cup weekend and we have no game.
Another big lie, went to an away game at Villa in the early 90's, got back and went on the lash, back home in the early hours, Mrs H "how come you're so late?" Well Aston Villa is in the South Coast near Cornwall where we've been on holiday, 6 hour drive home.
Can't get away with it now, she's morphed into a proper City fan.
