Well, I enjoyed the pre-match atmosphere round Highbury yesterday afternoon. 4 hours before kickoff, there were hundreds of Arsenal shirts heading through the ‘tickets only -sold out’ signs on the doors of the pubs, ‘tired and emotional’ youths were making noise on Upper Street, and cars with flags were tooting at them as they went by. I was dropping off Ohna’s computer which those nice Apple people have agreed to fix despite it being past its warranty (actually past its ‘repair extension programme’ but anyway). I stopped for a coffee and came out to find my bike had been driven into (handlebars bent, pedal on floor, crank broken, back derailleur bent). I’d been sitting ten yards away but facing in the wrong direction. Just got the call to confirm that it’s ‘beyond economical repair’. Time to shop around and get into debt again…
