It really is amazing how far away from home you can be and you can still catch a game with a crowd of fellow Spurs supporters. The passion and commitment is genuine, especially for those where the time difference means being awake at silly o'clock in the morning.

This happened to me in Norway. Was on holiday in Bergen. When on holiday anywhere in the world I will always try and catch the Spurs game in a bar if we are playing. I went into a place called Football Puben, not really expecting to see the game, thinking they'll probably have Man Utd or Liverpool on if any English football. We were playing Stoke away. Not only was the game on (as well as various other games from the Premiership and Championship), there were about twenty passionate Spurs fans their with scarves etc on. We got talking and I am very good friends with them to this day, they come over about twice a year for games, and I have been back there over to see Brann (local team) play with some of them.
 
Some years ago I was in the wilds of Connemara for Christmas at the in laws. It was snowing heavily and bitterly cold. Went into a pub advertising Sky Sports.
They were showing the West ham game at the Lane. It was Boxing Day, we won 2- 0.
There were three Spurs fans in there. COYS!
