The Igloo of Calverton and where is my wheelie bin dude?
Jan1020109 p.m.
So was out doing the usual training on stamina in the frozen tundra that is the low hills above Calverton, Notts. Derbyshire was out today due to it being very difficult to find a road through it that hasn't been snowed out or iced up. However, at the high point of the track along the ridge line I was cheered by the sight that confirmed that the present cold snap was possibly worse than we first thought - there in all it's glory was a partially constructed Igloo! I cannot claim to be an expert on such constructions but it looked well made of blocks of snow and everything
I have included a picture of said construction's design just in case you need to throw up some temporary winter accomodation in your part of the world too! On the way down back into the village I came across a search party enquiring if I had seen two wheelie bins that had gone missing overnight? Apparently the thieves had also taken the rubbish with them too and you could see where the wheels of the bin had left fresh tracks in the snow across a farmer's field and off uphill. This was a strange day indeed and probably a case for Mulder and Scully.
Bad hair day in the strange hills above Calverton!
