I lost nearly 4 stone in a couple of months due to a combination of amoebic dyssentry and giardiasis, which started after a meal in a 5 star hotel. Took me nearly 2 years to get fit again, by which stage no top club was interested any more. Bring me that chef (no, not you, chef) and I’ll kick the bloody tulip out of him. Well actually I won’t; it might be a public health hazard.

It was a trip to India that ended my hopes of becoming a professional rugby player. If I were a young athlete now, I wouldn’t go unless the team has its own kitchen staff, its own cleaning staff and its own food supplies shipped in from Dubai or some other developed place.

Team delegates have described the accommodation as filthy, unhygienic and unfit for human habitation.
