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?

Small changeI can distictly remember going to the garage to put some petrol in my car and paying for £3 of fuel in one pence peaces... I made it easier to count by stacking them in rolls of 10p and wrapping them in electrical tape... It was made worse by the fact that I knew the girl on the till as I went to school with her.
I can also remember (many moons ago) emptying my wallet and putting 50p in my spluttering (almost out of fuel) battered old XR3i in order to get me home.
Length? About five miles and I made it easily with a bit of clutch down free wheeling.

jesus50p of petrol wouldn't fill a cigarette lighter these days!
