    10. And finally... Your embarrassing moment?

    Hotel Sofitel Tahiti 1994

    Sunbathing naked on the balcony 3 floors up
    a giant nasty insect was heading for my open door 
    I shut the door, As It closed in what appeared to be slow motion.
    I read the sticker ottached "This is a Security Door do not close whilst on the balcony"
    I tried the drainpipe but it started to come away from the wall, So I had to balcony hop about four or five times before I found a room with a maid.
    I can't explain how embarrassed I felt nor the look on her face as she let me in
