With the media hype surrounding Euro 2004 building by the day football fans are dribbling with expectation. However, not everyone is in love with the beautiful game, which is why recruitment experts Kelly Services has produced a survival guide for those who want to avoid the football frenzy.
The guide, available from Kellyís website and branches, provides a selection of good ideas on how to avoid getting caught up in the football and take advantage of those quiet times when most people will be glued to their screens.
Advice includes:
A new you - The three weeks of the championships provide an opportunity to improve your life. Get fit, get your finances in order, catch up with old friends, transform your home, work on the tan and maybe make a start on the overlooked garden.
Treat yourself - Take advantage of the quiet times when games are on and the streets are empty to do some hassle free shopping, catch up on the movies, entertain or visit friends or maybe enjoy some pampering at a spa.
Get away - If you are really desperate to avoid the football why not plan a short break and get away from it all - Just make sure itís a country without a team in the championship!
Clare Francis, Communications Manager at Kelly Services, commented, Most people are looking forward to Euro 2004 but some find the whole thing a bit much with all the coverage on TV and in the papers. Our guide simply provides some suggestions for those who want to find an alternative to football during the tournament but it also has good ideas for everyone, football fan or not.
So, if you want some ideas on how to get through Euro 2004 without watching a game then pop along to your local Kelly branch and collect a copy of the guide. While you are there check out the latest temporary or permanent job opportunities.
