Dunge is friends with me on Facebook and he would be able to pull me up on it if I was lying!

How many of you have travelled and seen how other people live in third world countries?

Me. I sold my 2000 acre estate in Scotland, my fleet of supercars and my business (a small company called Waitrose, I doubt you've heard of it) - I took all of my cash and a backpack to Africa and spent 14 years building huts and collecting fruit for the tribes. Then I decided to swim back from Madagascar to Scotland for charity but on the way I thought 'fack it, why not carry on' and so continued swimming until I got to the North Pole. At which point I tracked down a group of Inuit who were hungry. I felt sorry for them so got back in the water and caught a whale with my bare hands for them. Then I swam home.

No one going to praise my fantastic charity work?

India has to be the most hectic place on earth, it's proper mental. I suppose it's everything I imagined but nothing actually prepares you for being in the thick of it.

Everyone stares as if they've never seen a white person before, which to be fair they probably haven't because I've not seen one yet. That said, they're very friendly and most smile and say hello. School boys are fascinated and have crossed the road to come and say hello, the girls blush at the hint of a smile and the kids all wave.

I decided that I wanted to do some good while I was here, so I bought some food and coffee to give to a dozen homeless people camped outside a church. Most of them had lost all their fingers to gangrene I presume, it was very sad but seeing the smiles on their faces was priceless.

I carried on walking and saw an old woman sifting through rubbish looking for scraps, so I stopped her and asked her to come with me and I bought her and her another woman some food and coffee and then decided to buy a bag full so that I could just hand them out to people who looked like they needed it. I soon ran out.

In one street, I literally had people circling around me five deep but I wasn't able to feed everyone and seeing their sad faces just pulled at my heart strings. I bought more and in the end I spent R800 ($16) and must have fed 40-50 odd people. One man even likened me to Jesus and started praying at my feet which was awkward.

As I was walking away, I stopped to take a breather and man shouted across the road and asked where I was from. When I told him I was English his face lit up and he told me that the British were very good for India and that he was happy that they were part of the British Empire, something I've definitely not heard too often but it does go to show that our history isn't all bad. He even invited me into his home for tea and snacks and he and his wife made me feel very welcome.

After a 12 hours in Tiruchirappalli, I'd pretty much had enough of India and booked myself an overnight bus to Pondicherry. With my body clock all over the gaff from jet lag, I woke up around 4am and sat up to watch the world go by, or more accurately, one sh!thole town after the next pass by.


I'm not sure I could make all that up so quickly and it matches accurately to the shortened version I just posted!! Had to edit the shhitt!!

As is everything I've said and Dunge is friends with me so I can't really lie about anything! There are photos of the Maclaren team photo and ne with Kimi's car on there too!

I've not lied about anything! If Dunge googled my name and a few other words, he'd find an article about me.

Absolutely!! Its the best job ever! I went to the tennis last night in a corporate box with a supplier called On The Go Tours, who I will be going to Africa with for free, in May/June! I'm going to Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, DRC and Burundi on a 15 day Gorilla and Game Trek. Might as well go to Kilimanjaro while I'm there hey.

Yeah I'm nuts for having this job ha ha oh and I got a $1500 bonus today after tax, just for making a few sales. I make loads of money because I know what I'm talking about because I've travelled so much!!

For someone who has the ambition to go to every country in the world, can you think of a better job? Other than a pilot?
