Image source, Alan ShearerI don't even know what time I left Wembley after Sunday's Carabao Cup final, it was that kind of night.
Along with my son Will and daughter Chloe, we went straight from the stadium to party in Boxpark on Wembley Way and celebrate with the Newcastle players and hundreds of fans.
The champagne - and beer - was flowing for everyone and it was an amazing evening, the sort you just don't want to end. No-one wanted to go home and, for the first time, I didn't mind waking up the next day with a hangover either.
Everyone was on such a high, and I am still buzzing now from the sheer emotion of seeing Newcastle finally win a major trophy and the reaction that followed.
You can see from some of the photos taken that night that, I got my hands on goalkeeper Mark Gillespie's winners' medal and the team have taken the trophy home but it is the feeling that is the most special part of all of this, because it is something so many of us had not experienced before.
Maybe some older people have had it in 1969 when Newcastle won the Fairs Cup but I am 54 and anyone under my age has not had a moment like this.
It was something new, and it was brilliant, and it is not over yet.
