When 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?

Isn’t Greece fantastic? Lowest standard of living in Europe apparently (according to Time Bandits anyway).
Slightly related, but off topic – when the sweary missus lived on Kos, she was tickled by the fact that the two guys that drove / operated the shit wagon (i.e. emptied the septic tanks) in the morning, were also the ambulance drivers in the afternoon. And this, the island where the father of modern medicine lived…
