Caving-in for England
Months ago, I decided that I wasn't going to watch any of this year's FIFA World Cup. I'm not really a football fan any more and with this year's competition being one of the most controversial ever, I thought I'd be able to let it pass me by.
I failed at the first hurdle. As the teams were lining-up before the England v Iran game, I opened up the BBC iPlayer just for a sneaky peek at the players. I kept the game running on my second monitor while I worked on my main screen. It wasn't long before work stopped, and I became engrossed in England's eventual 6-2 victory.
England are due to play the United States on Friday evening, November 25. I suppose I'll fail again now.
