Brian Thacker, bus
tour-leader extraordinaire, tells it
how it really is in this funny, rollicking,
absurd, ride through Europe.
Crew Manual Rule No. 5 : Crew
must not engage in sexual activity
on board the bus with passengers
or fellow employees.
Crew Manual Rule No.2 : learn
all names on day one.
Crew Manual Rule No.3 : don't
get lost.
But then, who follows the rules?

Thacker confesses all as he reveals
the best (and worst) of 20 trips as
a tour leader around Europe. He tells
how he fed passengers horse meat spag
bog, hamburgers made from breakfast
cereal and roosters' testicles. How
he left a passenger standing by the
side of a motorway in France for three
hours in his underwear clutching a
purple toothbrush and how, along the
way, he lost his driver, his cook,
his bus, 10 brightly colored canal
bikes, a large church and eventually
his patience.
