A story that I've mentioned here before, but it fits the thread rather well...
A happy memory from Paris, many years ago.
I was on the Metro, and as the train was nearing my stop, I stood up to walk towards the door. As I did this, the train stopped suddenly, and I went flying forward. Out of instinct I stuck a hand out, to try and grab a handrail, but instead (after travelling a few feet down the carriage) my hand ended up on the breasts of a shocked Parisienne lady! A nice soft landing, and the look of horror on her face as I ended up on her was a picture! A good test of my French too..."pardon, pardon, pardon madame, un accident, pardon, pardon..."
