Between Alexandria in Egypt and Dubai, Forest put in a decent performance against the might of Manchester City at the City Ground. Cruising at 550mph and an altitude of 36,000 feet, flying over parched land and through blue skies, I don’t know this at the time. When we land in Perth, Western Australia, it’s a…
