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.

the 43 night bus, from picadilly gardens to northendenwill be well known to mancunian posters, and was brilliant back in 1991-1992 when we were penniless students, as I only lived another 20 minutes walk from where the bus finsihed, thus saving valuable money for beer.
anyway, we get on one night, the bus gets about two stops down the road and one of the girls sat on the other side of the bus (who was clearly a bit worse for wear) is exorcist sick all over the couple sat in front of her. they get off a few stops later, covered in chunks and dripping, and a bloke gets on. sees the empty seat, but doesnt clock that the bus is full and people are stood up, and havent taken the empty seat.... and promptly sits himself down on the vomit covered upholstery.
it almost made up for catching a bit of the spray from when the girl threw up in the first place.
