That gets me neatly to one of my great passions (I mean Football � not Dusty)! In spite of being born and brought up in Watford, I am an ardent supporter of Liverpool FC. However, domestic commitments meant that I was well into my fifties before I got the opportunity of actually visiting the hallowed turf at Anfield for a home match. I remember it well, it was on 28th December 1998 (a Christmas treat) and levels of excitement were running high. As if by pure coincident, the opposition on the day was Newcastle United (would you believe).
Unfortunately, our train driver forgot to stop at Watford Junction to pick us up we were left stranded. Our spirits plummeted. Frantic phone calls were made and the next through train made an unscheduled stop at Watford to pick up about 30 very relieved (but very well-behaved) fans and literally got us �on track�! We had a glorious day and I even remember the score, although crofter might wish to forget. We won 4 - 2!
