..... that you're certain no one else on CS has done?

I'll start.

Back in the 80s I overnighted in the Commander's quarters of a German Mine Sweeping vessel docked in Bremen Harbor.

I don't remember, it was so long ago. I do know I didn't sleep at all that night with all the sounds of a busy ship going on.

Slept in a hammock for 6 nights on the grounds of (what was at the time) Andrews Air Force Base in 1981.

Well there are things i cant really talk about
1-bad memory
2-im not sure if others have done it
laugh

Okay, here it goes. I got my nose broken a few times, got elbowed playing basketball in the school yard , got a head shot by another player-playing football -European football and so on, but the most impressive nose break was in the swimming pool .We were playing some game underwater ,something like Marco Polo and I actually dived right in to the wall ...later when I came home, I realised that i can see my nose only with my left eye ...so I went to the bathroom and intended to straighten my crooked honker .I punched my self in the nose ...which was already broken ...lost conscience ,fell on the floor ... blood everywhere doh

Because I was with the Explorer troop I belonged to at the time. Maybe 15 years old, about thirty of us. Hotter than ten hells that week, days were all above 90°, nights never got below 70°. Very high humidity. I opted to NOT sleep in a tent, and slung a hammock between two big ol' shade trees. I got to listen to airplanes all night.

That actually sounds like a wonderful adventure.

Sleeping in the morning in the berm of Salisbury hill. And all the cars were stopping asking me if I had an accident, or if I was hurt.
The fact was I was cycling through the uk for the local hedgehog and squirrelfoundation and I couyldn't book a hotel, hostell or B&B before arriving, for I never knew how far I could cycle that day. I had only three gears and the breaks were on the pedals, not a good bike for the UK. So one night I didn't found a place to sleep, everything was fully booked, and I cycled on the whole night, it was too cold to sleep in the open air. In the morning I had a breakfast by McDonalds in Salisbury barf , and afterwards I started to climb that hill, most part walking next to my bike. Then the sun started shining, the temperature rose to about 22 degrees celsius, and I decided to take a nap, put my bike in the berm, the radio next to me, and tried to sleep. But then the cars started to stop and the drivers wanted to know if I was okay. rolling on the floor laughing

You have to admit though Minx, that you are a tasty looking morsel. I can't blame the kitty.

I do hope that the hedgehogs and squirrels appreciated your sacrifice. professor
