IN - HOUSE MEMO TO: My Darling & Sweetheart FROM: Your One & One only SUBJECT: FIFA World Cup 2010 – Holding between June 11 and July 11 2010 DATE: June 04, 2010 My Sweetheart, you know that there is nobody like you! My love for you is as solid as Mount Everest . You also know that I love football – abi???
World Cup 2010 will start on June 11 and it’s very important that I send this memo in advance as notice that things may have to change during this period. FIFA has already endorsed the memo.
Please endeavour to read the sports section of all your favorite newspapers so that you are adequately aware of the goings on regarding the World of Soccer. This will enable us have fruitful conversations during the period and prevent any complaints of inadequate attention noting that all conversations during the said period, will be mainly about the “mundial”.
• During the World Cup, the LCDTV in the living room, becomes mine – every time I am at home.
Please act as if the African Magic Channels do not exist during this period on this TV.
• Please avoid passing in front of the TV during games.
• When matches are on, I may be blind, deaf and mute unless I require a refill of my drink or need
something to chop!
• Please, please and please!! If you see me upset during or after any match DO NOT say “it’s only a
game” because it is not. It is more than a game!
• Feel free to sit with me to watch the games but reserve all discussions for half time and
only when the advertisements / commercials are on.
• Please note that action replays are as important as the main thing!
• Finally please advise your friends and in fact our families NOT to arrange any gatherings that require
my attendance as I WILL NOT GO O!!!!!!
Thank you my darling for your cooperation and understanding.
I know you love me too!!!!!!
Your one and only sweetheart - It is a goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best Regards
