That "ten things I've done that you haven't" meme

[inulro]

Or, how do I suck, let me count the ways.

I can come up with exactly one:

1. Sailed to Australia from Vancouver on the last of the big ocean-going passenger ships (as opposed to a cruise ship) and back a year later, calling in at Hawaii, New Zealand, Fiji, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Los Angeles and San Francisco. I was aged 3 and 4 at the time, but I do remember quite a bit.

It's a good one, so I thought it was worth mentioning.

In my defence, it's not so much that I'm pathetic as I surround myself with people who have led more interesting lives than I have.

Ooh, that sounds like a fabulous trip *much enviness*

Mine would have to be: went to Communist Youth Camp in Russia.

I think you win, as you probably weren't 4 at the time.

It was just after the putsch, so the camp was still there and some of the people were still there, but it was essentially the youth group I was with plus a dozen Russians out in the arse end of nowhere. My memories are mainly of drinking vodka late at night, being chatted up by some chap through his friend (he say you very be-yootiful girl) and swimming in the river.

Oh, and the lavatories, which were six uncublicled, spotlessly clean tiled holes in the ground (disnifected every day) over an OPEN CESSPIT. The stench was unbelievable. You learn to pee once a day under those circumstances...
