Best travel story… “I had a training camp in Dubai, yes you read that correctly Dubai! Got to the airport to check-in and they would not let me go as my passport was invalid within 3 months (had to be 6) so I had to get a flight to London, get a new passport all in one day then finally fly to Dubai!”
