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.

10A Liverpool bus and the "phantom brick throwers"More 10A horrors:
There was a phase of delinquent little b___ards that were continuously trying to put the windows through on the buses at night as they drove through Thatto Heath. Hiding in the park, under the cover of darkness.
I was with my GF and set off out to see a film in St Helens. The bus driver actually told us to stay within the centre of the bus to avoid anything if it happened to come through a window. It was in their local rag that someone got injured and was picking chunks of glass out of their face. Niiiiiice!
Also, getting the last ever 10A at night is a game of Russian Roulette. I would rather fork out money for a taxi than use my ticket to return back to my GF's gaff. We come to an "executive" decision about this lets say...
