As for the other pic....what does everyone think of MDF towers ?

The Doctor Marten's Stand didn't impress me all that much, considering it was a completely new stand. I'm sure the executive areas are very nice, but the ordinary punters' sections were just like any other football stand, the same very ordinary washrooms, just like public bogs, and the same number of inadequate refreshment bars. The view was excellent, but I think the stand will date quickly. By the way, where is the Quality Hotel? Is it built into the back of the stand?

As for the Tube, I took a bus to East Ham, and so got a seat. I had forgotten how slow the District Line is. I have a colleague who takes that line from Dagenham East to St James's Park every day. That is not a journey I would wish to do regularly by any means.
