I attended St Angela’s convent school in Forest Gate and knew well the Upton Park/West Ham connection.

Trevor Brooking was and is a legend!

Kevin and I were celebrating our 36th wedding anniversary and went to Vita Bella to dine.

Seated at our table there was a table to my right comprised of Grandparents, uncle, daughter and two grandchildren.

After a while I recognised the voice of the male grandparent-Sir Trevor Brooking no less!

I felt I had to get a photo, as Andrew would love that as a WHU fan.

I ummed and ahhed, but as they were to leave I took my chance, and Sir Trevor happily obliged!

Lovely man, legend and great ambassador for football and West Ham.

I hope you enjoyed your 70th birthday celebrations today!
