Yep its that time of year again when Fatkins, Lofty, Jules and I head to Craven Cottage to check out the Fulham v Boro football match. I can’t believe at nearly 4.5 years in London the only Premiership matches I’ve seen in my time here are between these two teams! Ha ha.

We started off with a lovely lunch from The Coat and Badge. Not unexpectedly for a game day it was absolutely packed and when combined with a big Christmas party it meant that at one stage they had to shut the kitchen until they caught up on orders. We managed to get our lunch in on time but sadly we couldn’t get any dessert so we stopped at a corner store where Jules bought us some chocolate bars.

Both Leah and Caz were also coming to this match which was good timing and we found out we were even seated in the same section though they ended up on the other end of the row about a couple of rows in front of us so I didn’t catch up with them until after the match when we went and had a few drinks at Fulham Broadway.

Being winter the day moved slowly from a lovely Saturday afternoon, followed by a gorgeous sunset and then dark just like that!

The game was actually a really good one for once. Lots of goals scored and even though we didn’t get to the predicted 7-3 score line (Lofty’s prediction) the game did get pretty close. More goals scored today than at the total of the three games we’d seen before! Most of the action ended up at our end too so that was quite cool.
