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.

and the little one said roll over....Worst ever has to be when I flew to Cancun, Mexico from Manchester.
We asked for 2 seats together and one aisle seat as my fella has freakishly long legs, but got two aisle seats next to each other.
So, Fella got to sit quite comfortably next to some little skinny ladies for the ten hour flight and I get stuck next to the biggest man in the world and his wife. He must have been 6ft 4ish and about 20 odd stone and the missus was a chubster too.
lovely couple just not the best to sit next to considering for 10 hours i sat leaning into the isle cuz I have no room especially when he fell asleep and lolled in my direction.
horrible back pain for a couple of days after mixed with sunstroke on the first day is not the best way to start off your hols!!!
