It's PRISONER CELL BLOCK YATES. This is the cell, and there's no other way to describe it,
that we stayed in, in Swiss Cottage. £22 a night. You had to be a teenager to stay there, but obviously, me and Yates can pass for teenagers. Click on picture to enlarge. |

Yates the morning after. We found a greasy spoon for breakfast which was quite frankly the worst
fried breakfast either of us have ever had, and to be honest it's a wonder we both survived it. Click on picture to

We also went to the National Museum, only because the pubs don't open until 11am, to be honest. Click on picture to enlarge. |

Right why are we here? It's the NFL International Series at Wembley Stadium, where each year a regular series
NFL game is played. This year its Tampa Bay against New England. Click on picture

It would have been better for me and Yates if it was the Steelers against the Cowboys, but again this year, noone in charge
of the NFL asked us for our opinion. Click on picture to enlarge. |

Teams coming out. You may be able to tell from these pictures that our seats were one row down from the top rim of the
stadium. Top seats. we could see everything. Didn't have my zoom camera though so these shots all look a bit far away... Click on picture to enlarge. |

National anthems, UK and US. Katherine Jenkins sung ours, bonus. And Joe Calzaghe was there as well, it was like
being at the Millenium Stadium. I have to say though that Wembley has nothing on Cardiff, its not a patch on it. Click on picture

Patriots won 35-7. Tampa could have played for another week on their own after the game and they still would have lost. Click on picture to enlarge. |

they were in town. Click on picture
