    Galatasaray fans worship Graeme Souness, which I find very amusing. I'd love to go to the Istanbul derby one day.

    Some lovely people, a few less than savoury people too, but I suppose that's the case wherever you go. Food was beautiful, packed full of taste, cheap, and plentiful, what more can you ask for!

    You don't even have to ask for anything in my experience. They bring you like five courses of free mezze before you even get what you ordered!

    Haha very true... So... Much... Bread... In my experience you come in, sit down, presented with some little nibbles and a warm welcome, then you order and end up with twice as much as you asked for! All for about 10 quid per person.

    That was when they won the cup in 1996. It was in Fenerbahce's stadium. The balls on that man.

    Picture Adkins sprinting half the length of Fratton Park to plant a Southampton flag in the centre circle minutes after beating them in their own back yard.

    In my experience most countries have decent populations with a few less savoury types thrown in - and much the same with the food. Have done jobs in some Arabic countries that i have no great desire to revisit but even there some of the basic food was good, love their sour dough bread for instance.
    Of course you can get some good food in the States but i agree with the posts about it often being a case of quantity over quality in many places there.

    Hmmnn. Reading this thread has given me a hankering for 16 ounces of Doner kebab meat in the world's largest pitta bread, topped with 5lbs of extra hot chilli beef sauce, with 4lbs of melted haloumi cheese on top, served with extra large fries and a half gallon chocolate milkshake.

    I'd rather cook two pizzas, then sandwich them together, and plough through it in a crazy stoned man vs food frenzy.

    You could cram a lot of beefburgers between those pizzas.

    Don't remember that. I remember Desperate Dan's cow pies though, with the horns sticking through the pastry.

    He took over a hotel in Margate, renamed it "Fatty Towers", which I thought was a brilliant name. On the menu were Pie sandwiches, Lard Pudding and Pork in Clams, amongst others.

    He also founded Club 18-30 stone.

    Adam Richman really ought to pay him a visit. It seems Buster could have been way ahead of his time.

    Or an American.
