Big Screen TV!!!!

During a recent stint of soccer coaching in the USA, I had the pleasure of staying with a family that employed a rather attractive Brazilian nanny. This nanny was very friendly and insisted on taking myself and the other coaches out to see the sites of an evening. Following one of these nights out we returned to the families house late at night, both a little intoxicated and frisky. We started to get to know each other a little better in the living room!!!!!! Just as we both got down to pretty much are bare essentials; we saw the light come on upstairs and heard footsteps!!!!! We both panicked, the nanny threw her clothes on and ran to hide behind the huge wide screen TV, and I quickly put my pants on and sat on the couch playing it cool like I was just watching the TV. Just as I got my pants on the man of the house enters the room to see who was in there!!!!!! I told him I couldn""t sleep so thought I""d watch a little TV, the guy was super cool and said no problem. He then got us both a beer and sat down with me watching the TV for about half an hour while the poor nanny was hiding behind it!!!!!!!!!!

Is it a turd, is it a plane, no it""s a snickers!!!!

Whilst working as a rep in Spain, some of my younger and livelier guest came up with a interesting way of amusing themselves after a few beers. One of them decided to throw a snickers bar into the heavily crowded swimming pool!!!!!! The pool empty in seconds with people screaming that there was a turd in the pool. One of the boys then proceeded to dive into the pool like something out of baywatch , he grabbed the turd, held it above his head then took a big bite out of it!!!!!! It was at this point that one of the guest nearly passed out, while the boys involved couldn""t stop laughing!!!!!!!

Tree skiing!!!!

You""ve all seen these people on the slopes, ""all the gear, and no idea""!!!!! I was working as a ski guide for a company which organizes school ski holidays to Switzerland. One of the weeks I had the advanced group which contained a number of skilled young skiers and a not so skilled teacher!!!!!! Anyway one day they all went on about hitting some jumps, so we meet up with some of the snowboard guys who had been building some little ""kickers"". We all lined up above the jump, when the school teacher steps forward telling us all that he will go first and show us all how it is done!!!!!! He heads off down, hits the jump way to fast, lands completely out of control heading straight for a tree, smashes into the tree and breaks his nose!!!!!!! Of course all the children are crying laughing and we have to try and keep our composure and look professional. He took it easy for the rest of the week and luckily the tree was fine!!!!!!!

Where am I!!!!

After a heavy night drinking in the ski resorts we were working in, one of our co-workers was not in their room the following morning. Just thinking that they had got lucky the rest of us got on with our jobs and covered for them as well as we could. It turns out that the poor sod woke up in the reception of a hotel that they didn""t recognize. When they asked the manager if he new where there hotel was, the manager looked at them shocked and said that their hotel was in a different resort!!!!!! The guy didn""t know how but he had somehow managed to end up in a different rest 10 km""s away from the resort that he should have been in!!!!!!! Always a sign of a good night out!!!!!!!!!

Room service!!!!

Following a busy summer working on children""s camps in the US, myself and some friends decided to hire a car and head off to explore some of the country before heading home. It was all going very well until one day we pulled up at our hotel and parked in the space directly outside our room. The guy who was driving was still getting used to driving in a foreign country and somehow managed to press down the accelerator instead of the break!!!!!! The car jumped up the pavement and crashed through the front of our hotel room!!!!!! We were obviously a little shook up but not half as much as our friend who was in the shower at the time!!!!!!

Who needs a Kayak!!!!

Whilst spending a year traveling and working in Australia, I and a friend came across a great river with white water rapids!!!!!!! Like typical foreigners abroad we decided we would take it on using our inflatable air beds!!!!!! It started off OK, then suddenly got a little bit crazy!!!!!! I managed to bail from my raft and somehow grabbed onto the bank and get out of the river, at this point my friend disappeared down stream screaming his head off!!!!!! I went looking for him and after about 30 minutes he came wondering up the side of the stream bruised, battered and without his raft. That evening we were speaking to some local who informed us that 6 people had already died in the river that year, and these were people who actually had safety equipment and real kayaks. After hearing this we were less concerned about losing the raft!!!!!!!
