Marine 2-3 FC United

Great game, a must win for FC who took the lead, only to go behind and then bring the score to 2-2 at HT. Second half FC looked by far the stronger side and deservedly won.

Off the pitch the ‘Battle Zone’ predicted by the police predictably never happened, leaving 21 officers, three sergeants, four mounted police, several dogs and a force helicopter to make arrests for cannabis posession and breaking bail conditions.

Gamelan at the RNCM

Much as i would love to go into great depth about the history and traditions of Gamelan, I think that people would probably twig pretty quickly that it came from the Wikipedia page anyway. The Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester had a Gamelan concert, I went along to a rehersal, to watch and photograph. Thank you very much to the organisers and musicians who allowed me to be there.
