This afternoon I took my father to watch our local football team,Middlesbrough,at the Riverside Stadium. Unfortunately,these days, the "'Boro"(as they are called) are playing in the second tier of English football-the "Championship". Today's game was against Barnsley,a team from West Yorkshire,ended in a 1-1 draw. It's not very often we get to see our local team but we had a great day together.

My wife is always amazed to see police horses "on duty"on matchdays.
