Spare a thought!

Texting my mate Dave last night...he is preparing for hibernation or at least some sort of period as a hermit. He hates footy and so this world cup is proving unbearable for him.

To be honest I can see where he's coming from...it's lazy journo heaven out there the moment. Reports on kids and pensioners doing Crouch's robot dance, Guides to World cup outlining which pair of shoes each team resemble. Every advert you see be it McDonalds (at least they are sponsoring the thing), Argos, Kellogs or Canesten Cream (okay I made that one up) are jumping on the bandwagon. It is, in truth, getting tiresome. It'll be good once the footy actually starts so we can get 45 minutes at a time away from all the media hype!
