Route canal.....

It is so cold that my teeth are chattering, my toes are numb, and my fingers have ceased to function. (I'm typing with the tip of my nose, so forgive any mistakes......)

As I write, I'm half watching the final of Dancing on Ice. It's making me feel even colder though (and I have no idea who the 'celebs' are) so I think I'll stick a hot water bottle down my front, shimmy over to ITV3, and have a trip to Mesopotamia with Hercule Poirot.

Stay warm, Blip family.
