When were you last really scared?We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.
I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.
When were you last really scared?

Olympus AirlinesReturning from a lovely holiday on the Greek island of Kythera, where the runway was a field, very close to the sea, on a twin-propellor plane which sat about 20 people, on which the lights had to be turned off for the engine to start - not ideal, whilst above the shiny blue Agean Sea, for no real reason I could fathom the plane decided to drop towards said sea. Well, I say drop, I mean plummet like a stone bringing us hapless passengers alarmingly close to filling our breeks. Not sure how far we fell, but once normality was restored my already decimated faith in Olympus Airlines was further dented by the sight of the co-pilot laughing so hard he started retching and had to run to the loo. I think it was at that point I was sick onto my mother's lap.
