Blog World Cup – biggest prize on the planet – inherit the earth.

Africa bound July 24, 2006

Of the three books I am on with, make that four if one includes “Gretna, It Could Only Happen Here”, the World Cup one is progressing the most. This is because it needs to be out first – not too long after the event.

But it is lacking something I have realised : it is lacking Africa, where the World Cup is headed next.

And with it : 1. public attention. And with it 2. the attention of politicians. And with it 3. people out to make a fast buck. And 4. people out to build an Africa fit to stage the World Cup. I will be photographing there for a month, September into October to make my World Cup book even better.
