Let me tell you a little bit about my new friend in Africa, the World Vision Kid. Well, I say the World Vision Kid, but that makes him sound a bit like he wanders the plains of Africa dishing out confectionary, which of course he doesn't. He does have a proper name, but I'm afraid I can't quite remember what it is or how to spell it, and I can't be bothered to dig out the information right now, so I'll go with his middle name, which is the very easy to remember Peter!
Peter is 9 years old, and lives in Kenya. His favourite thing in the whole world is football. So, that's me screwed then! We aren't going to get along at all, are we. There are many sports that I enjoy, but football isn't one of them (too many afternoons spent freezing my bits off in the rain, being yelled at by sadistic P.E. teachers). If I write, I could try to impress with my climbing credentials, but I guess I'll also be brushing up on my Aston Villa knowledge, nominal fan that I am! At least I've seen them play a match. How many die hard football fans are there in the world, who have never actually seen their team play? Come on, own up...
