Hi JIm,
I got to the stadium about 7 a.m. - the gates open at 7:30 - and after  
the security check you run like hell to claim your favourite seats!!
The shot of the North Stand, taken from the South was made about 10  
a.m. - after breakfast and reading the paper. The South stand,
by early afternoon is heaving with drunk costumed fans and usually  
closed to entry - so you have to go early if you want to stay dry and  
get in and out to take a few pictures.
The picture of the South stand taken from the highest reaches of the  
North was made about 1 p.m. when the march past was under way.
It was a cloudy and misty day. I appreciate you looking and commenting.
Cheers
Howard
