This contest was a close call - there are many stories of woe here, but in the end, congratulations jb0261a! Your tale of misery (lack of sleep, masses of humanity, rolling around in poo, climbing up titchy, wobbly slanted stone steps at night, infection...etc.) certainly moved us enough to crown you the winner of this contest.
