Even though Ireland isn’t in South Africa for the FIFA World Cup, many football lovers are still eagerly anticipating the first match between South Africa and Mexico this Friday 11th June at 3pm (Irish time)
So, us Irish footie fans will just have to dig back into the archives to relive the glory of Italia ‘90, USA ‘94 or Korea/Japan 2002. If you’re like me, you’ll pick a team at the start of the competition and then pin your hopes on them to go all the way (secretly wishing they were Ireland )
Whatever team you pick, try not to get too excited… I have witnessed sofa cushions being flung at TVs after a terrible shot at goals. I’ve also heard tales of shoes and remote controls being thrown in the heat of the moment.
But the thing that really frustrates me during a football match is my actual TV itself. It has definitely seen better days. We’ve been through a lot of quality viewing together but it’s literally been on standby for quite a while now. At least as an AXA customer I can get a 5% discount off* in D.I.D Electrical so I might invest in a new TV this summer. (*terms & conditions may apply).
So it’s goodbye old tv…., hello shiny new full-HD windscreen TV. Here’s to a great World Cup!!
