ShopliftingWhen I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

Brick OvenWhile on a school trip to Berlin, we visited a nearby wartime extermination camp.
On a tour round the camp, I nipped over the fence and took a loose brick from one of the ovens.
Yes, those ovens.
On a previous trip to Berlin I palmed a badge being sold on some stall near the Brandenburg Gate. Germany obviously brings out the klepto in me.
P.S. having just read a post below I shoud add credence to my own by mentioning I too am from Doncaster (doing my bit for Donny tourism)

I stole some stuff in Germanywhile also on a school trip. I think it's something to do with the country that makes you want to steal from them.
