Unless you have been living under a rock, you can’t have failed to notice that a little event called the World Cup is taking place at the moment. Now, for me, this is bliss, I actually can’t think of anything I could love more than three or four footie matches everyday, but for those of you who don’t actually like football, this is probably your idea of a living hell.
