.........we got on a boat in Poole and sailed out of Britain forever!


Unfortunately I'm still traumatised by the memory of having to take a shit in a hole in the ground in those French service station toilets.


Took me a fair few attempts to get my aim right!


It don't look good turning up in Spain covered in your own excrement!

:laugh: That cracked me up

 

My crack wasn't too clever after that malarkey either.

Some of the mates were living in Madrid in the mid nineties teaching English (the tossers can hardly speak it themselves)

We had gone over on the ale for the week and I clearly remember falling, quite literally foul of the rudimental toilet arrangements in a tapas bar in the old town after a particularly heavy night before. (We were just topping ourselves up).

Que.

long rather desperate walk back to the flat.....

No just lost balance and fell on the piss...lol

Not good.

Cracking week mind.

How nobody died I will never know. ..lol

:lol: toilet humour! can't beat it! :lol:


The German bogs with shelves so you can inspect your produce for worms took some getting used to!


But the home made thunder boxes in the Gulf, Kenya, Belize were an experience never to be forgotten!

especially given the side effects of NAPS tablets etc. :roll:

I encountered the shelf toilets in Amsterdam! Took a MAHOOSIVE dump and the flush couldn't shift it :shock:

After much deliberation, I left a sign for the cleaner :thumb:

Tell me about it! To me the writing was on the wall by 2000.....Blair had destroyed the Socialist movement and it was obvious he had his own agenda.


Which was open the gates to everybody in the world, then throw benefit money at them to ensure he had a captive electorate to keep him in power.


All while leading Britain into illegal wars to keep everybody focussed elsewhere.

We ran away in '99 - but Johnny Foreigner in South Latin doesn't have the sense to make Marmite, Salt&Vinegar crisps, proper Cheddar or Guinness. Or seasons of the year. So we came home 11 years ago.


You wouldn't believe it but they don't have Branston or proper chocolate either. How can you have a picnic on a Caribbean beach without them? You can't.

And it was 11 years ago today I set foot in Spain for the first time in my life.....and never left! The way we were back then!

Following on with the 11 years in Spain theme......this is what I brought with me! An XT350......and an XT660. So what happened to them?


Truth is they didn't last long once they left my hands!


The 350 got shipped back to Britain a year later.....bought by a guy in Cardiff. A month later it got stolen and was never seen again.


The 660 got sold after a few months to a Brit in Moraira who killed himself on it within a few weeks. Strange but true!

Wow, a sad tale. Moraira always seems so peaceful, like nothing like that could happen there.

My best mate (he was my best man the first time, I was his)

got killed in an RTA on the infamous n332!

I think the first time I went to Spain was more than 11 years ago.

I'd love a place over there but would want to keep somewhere here too
