After weeks of speculation and doubts, we’re finally going. Hubby had dreamt of visiting the Theater of Dreams eversince landing on English soil. And this Saturday it’s finally going to happen.

We’re going to say hello and goodbye at the same time.

It’s Ole Gunner Solskjaer (sols-shire) testimonial and we’ve been lucky enough to grab some seats before the Norwegians take them all.

I have to confess though, I’m not really a football fan. I’m not averse to it. I know some players, I know what an offside rule is (I should say I *believe* I know…, but I can survive an entire season without it. I do not need the most expensive cable channel on my subscription.

But Hubs is a different matter. We got Sky just because… He has x-number of Utd shirts. He shouts & jeers at home or in the pub during matches — and these even when he’s alone! Yes, he goes to pubs & communes with like-minded individuals and bonds with other Red Devil supporters.

So this weekend, it will be a family weekend-away to Manchester. It’s not as exotic as Tunisia, but I’m ready to have some fun.

I got to practise my chanting and my singing. There’s plenty of time on the train.

pogiBoy is also excited and he can sing “Glory, glory Man Utd” like a pro.

I can’t wait for this day to end & start packing my stuff… Hub’s finished his & pogiBoy’s last night!
