Where to start...
- Suddenly realising you're in a gay bar in Montpellier when the power to the entire town goes out.

- Getting chased by english football fans (Chelsea) through the streets of Milan for having the audacity to support an italian team (Inter) in their own city.

- Flying back from Portugal on 'Air Atlantis' and landing so hard (on the second attempt) that the plane bounced off the runway and came down so hard it buckled the cargo bay door.

- Almost getting robbed by scammers in Prague.

- Getting lost in the dodgiest red light district in Paris at 4am.

- Realising the jellyfish I'm stood next to in the sea at Albufuera really WAS a Portuguese Man of War.

- Returning to the hotel in Cyprus after a night out to be told that it was on fire.

and by far the scariest...

- Being in a full on football riot after rather foolishly deciding to attend the Slavia Prague vs Sparta Prague derby game; ripped up seats, riot rozzers cracking heads, knives, clubs, fists, the lot.

They never put any of this shit in the brochures, that's for sure...
