Off we went to tackle Wembley Stadium. Fortunately, it was in it's final day functioning as a tourist attraction so we made it as far as reception.
Even more fortunately, we located a fantastic host - Tom was brilliant. The team had not bargained for the 1948 Olympics memorabilia that is housed at Wembley.

Despite the initially unpromising prognosis about what we would be able to see, we even managed to look down on the pitch of this very spacious, clean 90,000 seater stadium. We had a really brilliant tour.

From the Stadium we crossed to the Arena, in a former life the swimming venue in 1948. There was obviously lots of construction going on so we were more than pleased to get a front of venue photo.
