Terrific day out for a 16yr old Sid on his first visit to the Twin Towers. Travelled down from Aylsham on Keymers Coaches. Late arriving, we got onto the terrace just a couple of minutes before the teams came out. Confetti made from yellow pages was thrown. I took a handful, threw it up in the air and discovered later that my ticket went with it! No souvenir for me, just memories 🤣
