The world cup takes over every four years and depending on the number of time zones away from the action you are, it can literally turn your lives upside down.
Viewing times for matches here in Manila have been 9pm, 12am and 3am. I have only been up once at 3am to watch England play Sweden. They were apparently thinking of me during the 2nd half by putting in such a boring performance that I could sleep and not miss a thing. Add to the football mix a month old baby and a move to a new house and you have a recipe for what Bart has termed "the most surreal month of my life".
Scarlett or 'Lula' as most of us still refer to her is getting into the World Cup spirit of things by doing a very good impression of a football herself (pics coming soon).
