Desperate TimesStranded in a hotel in an African war zone with no internet access for two weeks, I was forced to resort to desperate measures. Possessing only my passport and the clothes I stood up in; and the warning "You can catch it shaking hands with a vicar out there" ringing in my ears, I had to draw my own porn in order to preserve my sanity.
Alas, it all came out looking like Coronation Street's Audrey Roberts, but, as they say, any port in a storm.
What have you done in times of great desperation?

planning to eatI don't plan ahead, however on one occasion I had money at the airport and had an hour to kill so went to the pub and ordered food and a beer.
Food arrived, I got my condiments etc lifted food to mouth to bite and the tannoy called me by name to the boarding gate!
Turns out the cockup was two-fold (when I got cross at the gate). Firstly my ticket was printed with the wrong time, meaning I had 30 minutes not 60. Also the smug git on the gate said "We like to get all our passengers on early".
So on the one occasion I ACTUALLY bought food, I wasn't able to eat it as the airline likes to be prompt. Sh1t happens eh?
