Reminds me of a time many years ago on an international Scout camp.
Me and the chaps had been a little naughty and as punishment we were given the job of mopping and cleaning the ladies toilet block.
They meant to demean us, but that was never going to happen, and as the camp site was in Preston the whole place was covered in mud so it was not going to be an easy task.
Obviously we put up cleaning in progress signs, but this did not seem to deter the Swedes, or Danes or any of the girl scouts at the camp.
Whats more, the Scandinavian types all proceeded to strip and get washed at the sinks. We got to know them, took them to the local pub, had dinner with them in our marquee.
The chaps and I had a terrific camp. Everybody else seemed to think two weeks of rain and mud in Preston was tulipe.

Reminds me of my time in Stockholm.
Four years of snow, midnight sun and being surrounded by Swedish women.
I came home for a rest!!
