Well that was a good trip.
First time the whole sf family were all able to go to a Euro away together since the Munich game during Octoberfest.
Went with some good friends as well and had a ball on the train to Euston and then on the Eurostar, all went like clockwork even found the hotel within minutes of leaving Gare du Nord.
Met up with another bluemooner who had scouted out a place with cheap beer for the night.
Ticket place was forty minutes from our hotel and we were there before it opened.
Then did some sight seeing before stopping for a beer on the Champs Elysees, bloody €10 for a half litre! Then on to some bars near the stadium where we went in the one rocking bar where the bar staff seemed to think it was ok to overcharge and short change everyone, robbing .....
Got in the ground early to avoid any problems and was told to sit anywhere! As it was early we got on the front row of the second tier.
Great result, back to Gare du Nord for more beer and celebratory shots before going for a meal at 1:45am.
Train home at 11 and then back in Manchester for 3:30pm
A very expensive trip, but can't complain as it was so cheap in Kiev
where were you drinking about at Gare du Nord
we were just up from the Hideout
