I shouldn't laugh

We're watching a re-run of "Long Way Round", Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman's travel documentary, where Ewan gets a face full of petrol and has to go to a Ukrainian hospital to have his eyes checked.

Then they show the poor guy being examined and then show the eye chart he has to look at.

I doubt McGregor knows much Cyrillic.

Of course you should laugh. Where would we be if we were unable to enjoy our neighbours' minor misfortunes from time to time? It would be the death of all camaraderie.

I loved that series: really fascinating and fun, as much for the insights into the participants as the places they visited. Ewan Macgregor seems like a awfully nice bloke.

It made me look into English teaching prospects in Mongolia.
