I was on a student ski trip to France in 2009
(BUSC Alpe D'Huez if anyone else was there)

We'd had a great week of sun, snow, drinking and horrific sunburn. By the time part of our convoy of coaches piled onto the ferry back to Dover, most of us had been drinking for the ten hours we had been travelling for, and were in that state of drunkeness and tiredness that only comes from being very tired and very drunk for a solid week beforehand. As I was wandering through the lower decks of the ship I saw a TV showing old Tom and Jerry cartoons and with nothing better to do, I sat down to relive a few memories. I heard a few rustlings behind me but I was surprised, when I turned around, to see over five hundred students watching it with me. Not making a sound nor moving a muscle - just watching intently. And every single one of them was smiling.

It's not the most random or spectacular of things, but I'm happy I was there to see it.
