Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted February 27, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 27, 2021 Never really had a shit holiday memory but the worst I felt was on a football trip to Germany in May 1986. Bolton played at Wembley, first time since 1958 and no Internet etc. As it happens, we played and beat a very good German team 3-2. They had an excellent blonde goalkeeper by the name of Oliver Kahn. Could tell then he was going to be special. He was a few years older than me, we had a team of 12-16 year olds and so did the team we played.

Duck Egg Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Never had a bad holiday but watching a bloke die next to me on a bus in Namibia was quite a shock. I ended up closing his eyes and mouth before his wife arrived so he looked more at peace than a staring corpse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That got a genuine :lol:! We were in the middle of nowhere and had to wait ages for the local Police to turn up. 2 blokes in shorts and flip flops, 1 in a Chelsea shirt didn't inspire much confidence. I suppose I should be grateful I wasnt fitted up for his murder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickbrown Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Stevie wins. The 'win her back karaoke performances' had me proper giggling. Not one of mine but a friend of a friend went to New York for a long weekend. They get there and he tells her he needs tomorrow afternoon to himself. She's imagining him shooting off to Tiffany's to buy a ring and a proposal that night in a swanky restaurant. Turned out he just went for a wander and a couple of beers on his own.

Dr Faustus Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I went to the Algarve about 14 years ago. Missus was in bed after too much sun, so I just went on a mooch by myself. Went past this apartment block a short distance from a restaurant (imagine the length of a GPS garden), anyway there was this kid just wandering about; she must've been about 3,blanket wrapped around her. I asked if she was OK, and it turned out she was a scouser. I assumed she was selling some gear or summat, so I just shook my head and pointed to this German looking bloke in the shadows. Fuck me, I've not heard the last of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 This thread is absolute gold. Sadly (or fortunately?) I don’t have much to contribute other than doing a couple of lengths in the pool one year, pausing at one end to check the time by getting my phone out of my pocket... 🤦🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
