Family Holidays
Back in the 80s when my Dad got made redundant (hello Dad!), he spent all the redundancy money on one of those big motor caravans.
Us kids loved it, apart from when my sister threw up on my sleeping bag, but looking back I'm not so sure my mum did. There was a certain tension every time the big van was even mentioned, let alone driven around France for weeks on end with her still having to cook and do all the washing.
What went wrong, what went right, and how did you survive the shame of having your family with you as a teenager?

Reichstag...
Travelling round Europe in a large camper van when I was around 15. Had a great trip but the close confines made doing what normal 15 year olds like to do on a mutliple daily basis difficult.
One day in Berlin I managed to escape and get some peace and quiet. That's right, I done a wank in the epi-centre of German politics, the Reichstag.
