Came back and the car had been nicked. It was a Good Friday. Had to get someone to come out to pick us up. It was found the following day. The police had seen it but as it was a high powered sports car they let it go. Apparently there was a kid, probably less than teenager. They could barely see him and he could barely see out the windscreen. He ended up crashing it and writing off a wheel. He abandoned the car, engine running, door wide open. While all that was happening during the Saturday, I had to get a tram to Old Trafford. It was turning into a disastrous weekend. One nil down heading into injury time. Then Steve Bruce popped up to score. He scored another deep into injury time. United 2-1 Wednesday - the rest, they say, is history:pac: For anyone who would like a reminder of that day:
