The Worst Journey in the WorldAspley Cherry Garrard was the youngest member of the Scott Polar Expedition when he and two others lost their tent to the winds of a night-time snowstorm. They spent hours in temperatures below -70°F stumbling about the ice floes hoping they'd bump into it as it was their only hope of survival.
OK, so that was bad, but we reckon you've had worse. We know how hard you lot are.

G8 DemoRemember the G8 demonstrations? I took the coach to Edinburgh from London overnight as it was cheaper than taking the train.
Big mistake.
I didn't sleep and the heating was jammed on all the time. I almost collapsed from the heat.
I ended up sitting next to a nun, so the conversation wasn't that easy, being somewhat the militant atheist type.
The journey back was just the same. Eeeesh.
