    Tenth Anniversary
    There were these three Eskimos in Alaska, and one time while they were
    at their local bar, they got to talking about how cold it was outside, and
    how cold their igloos were. They could agree on everything but whose igloo
    was the coldest, so they decided to determine who, indeed, had the coldest
    igloo.
    They went to the first Eskimo's igloo, where he said "Watch this!" and
    poured a cup of water into the air. Well, the water froze in mid-air and
    fell onto the floor.
    "Not bad" said the other Eskimos, but each maintained their igloo was
    colder still.
    So they went to the second Eskimo's igloo, and he said "Watch this!"
    and took a big breath and exhaled, whereupon his breath froze into a
    big lump and fell to the floor.
    "Wow, that's colder than mine! "said the first Eskimo. But the third
    Eskimo exclaimed his was colder still. So they ended up at the third
    Eskimo's igloo. He said "Watch this!" and went into the bedroom, threw
    back the thick furs, and retrieved one of several small balls of ice
    there. He took it, put it in a spoon, and held a match under it. When
    it heated up enough, it went "FFFAAAARRRRTTT".
    He won. :D

    I once made a snowman in the fast lane of the A1, and had a wee in the middle lane against a truck tyre. Now that was a cold winter.

    I will keep this in my mind as I struggle to go to sleep not knowing how/where he is....the A1 is terrible in snow....... god knows why he did not use the M1!

    I keep texting him addresses to go to, but apparently he is near Peterborough now and he can drive (fingers crossed)
