Every week we run a new question looking for funny / happy / sad / sick stories for the Newsletter. Help us choose the coming week's question from the following selection
Endurance: Have you been stuck in wolf-infested Arctic forests with only a pen knife and a packet of polo mints? Alternatively, have you had to have a cold shower when there was a power cut, or travelled cross-country by Rail Replacement Bus? Tell us about your feats of survival in grim conditions, and how you made it through alive.
Charity: Movember, Poppy appeal, Children in Need, starving Ethiopians, pious bastards who insist you live more healthily and require oodles of cash to do so. Who have you raised money for, what did you do, how did you fail to even run a mile ensuring they received nothing, how many Chuggers actively avoid you because they know what's coming, and what did you do with the money you stole from the collection box?
Great events in history: Where were you when Diana died, or 9/11 happened, or some other massive news event happened. I was in a chip shop when they announced the Queen mum's death, and had a pickled egg in her memory. It's what she would have wanted.
Destruction, Demolition and Deconstruction: I've just taken down a pergola with a metre deep Russian Vine over the top. It had nine birds' nests in it, and had rotted all of the cross timbers. It covered the entire lawn and needs a skip of its own. What's the biggest/worst thing you've ever taken down? (Answers containing the words 'your mum' will be sniggered at unmercifully.)
