Grinch

"Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought, doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more." Dr Seuss

Phone

Clive couldn't reach his ear to hold his phone during a call so he had to lie on his side and balance the phone on his head (don't ask how he achieves this without being able to reach - that is not important). This is what is happening here, although he has lying on snow, hence he looks as though he is standing. For proof; if you look closely, the grass is poking through. That was a long caption now wasn't it. I wonder how many people got this far? Sometimes I see a large block of writing and switch off, I don't bother, but not you, you stuck with it and good on you. You should be proud of yourself, Clive is proud of you.
