We all knew that. The old Wembley. A John Motson classic when Martin Buchan was Man Utd Captain when they won the Cup " How fitting it is that a man called Buchan is ascending the 39 steps to receive the FA Cup."

That is correct but it's not where they were in the book. The Robert Powell film version puts them leading up the clock face on Big Ben. They're not there either. Oh yes, I know Big Ben is the bell but everyone knows what I mean.

I once knew a girl whose name was spelled Leslie. She didn't care.

My wife's middle name is Lesley, after her dad whose was Leslie. Don't think she would have been chuffed.
Don't think Leslie Howard, one of our finest ever actors would have been 5oo chuffed with the other version. Didn't do the actress Leslie Caron any harm, but she is French and they do these things differently.

My wife's name actually is Lesley, after her father Leslie, or so I thought till I asked her mother if she was named for him. "No, I just liked the name," was her reply.
