I've found the FCO travel advice very useful in the past, mainly for impressing your mates by showing them how hardcore you are and how dangerous the places you've been are! The situation on the ground is not always what it is portrayed to be by the good old FCO, so while their information might make a useful browse take it with a large pinch of salt....
Generally if somewhere is too dangerous to be they will not let you in at the border, and if you run into a trouble spot once in a country the authorities will usually direct you or (as was the case for a friend of mine who rode into a rocket attack in Jammu and Kashmir) escort you back to a safer area.
I've had more trouble of drunk kids in Germany and thieving chav scum in Sheffield than I have in some of the 'red' countries!
Matt - will you be going to the Brighton burn up in September? I will be coming down to london for it, starts at the Ace Cafe.
