» Things you've done when you've had no money.

Hello sailor.
The one thing i wasn't willing to sacrifice at university due to tight finances was beer, so all I could afford to eat was bread. This fairly limited diet led to me getting scurvy 3 times. Bleeding gums and wobbly teeth alerted me and my doctor to the problem. I then expanded my diet to encompass bread and orange juice. And beer

Ever been to Iceland?
I mean the country not the shop. It's so expensive there (£8 a pint!) we just couldn't afford to do anything. So every morning when we went down for the free hotel breakfast we would stuff our pockets full of food and make it last the rest of the day. Fine until one day I had a lapse of memory and rode an Icelandic pony over the lavafields with a cheese sandwich and a boiled egg in my back pockets.

» People with Stupid Names

My Surname
My family name is Humby. I didn't think there was anything too unusual about that until my fiance did a google search on my name and discovered that it is slang for an erection which won't go away, making urination problematic. She can't laugh about it too much tho, it will be her name too next august.
