There were plenty of people dressed up (or should that be undressed) for it as I headed to the football. I wish I had gone to the festival instead, it looked far less depressing than watching West Ham.

You can park in Westfield. But kerbside parking is always suspended when there is an event in the stadium (including West Ham home games). My eldest used to live right next to the Jubilee line footbridge, so I could park beneath his place and then it was a short stroll through the Carpenters estate to the ground. Sadly he has now moved to Canada so I have lost that option. I've got chickens in my back yard Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 22-08-2018 16:01 PM All times are GMT.
