Brighton is the next port of call and here we see why DJs don't fare too well in relationships. A Bunny Boiler comes to visit with disastrous results. France comes calling next and apart from drugs, robbery, slander and getting fired, it seemed a quiet time there.
Then the country that changed everything, Malta. Graham is introduced to many people who would have a life-changing effect and create an affinity with the people of this small island that continues to the current day. The Sunday Sports girls, giant jellyfish, and death are the topics in these chapters, along with the formulation of the very naughty Beach Bums Club.
