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?

Beer GardenThis story should have been made into a movie, it was so heartwarming. Resulted in the best 21st party ever that I'd been to.
This was in Richmond Melbourne, drinking at the local in the beer garden one Friday night, just the four of us, 3 guys and 1 girl. We were the only customers in the beer garden aside from a middle aged couple supping port and brandy or whatnot in the corner.
After a few beers, we discovered a keg, just sitting there in the beer garden. Assumed it was empty, but just in case.. Jamie went over and tried to pick it up. It was full.
Conversation soon turned to how great it would be to have at Jamie's upcoming 21st. Keg stands in the bathtub etc. That mythical beast.
If only we weren't locked in the beer garden. Just for a laugh, Jason tries his house key in the locked gate of the garden.. holy shit it worked, it was a miracle.. we now have a full keg, blind ambition and 3 hideously drunk young men rolling a keg up Richmond hill at 9pm on a Friday.
The middle aged couple politely ignored us.
It was kept in the bathroom for a week or so, paranoid that the po were going to come and arrest us for keg thievery. The night of the party arrived, the beer was good.. the only clear memory I really have left of that night was watching Jamie handstanding on top of the keg being held up by 3 or 4 people. Absolutely mashed.
Good times. Good party. Crime does pay.
