I headed down to the Gapcheon river, as I had noticed it was frozen a couple of days before. I assumed there would be kids playing on the ice. I didn't expect anything so organised. People were renting sleds and skates and having a whale of a time. It was fascinating to watch and photograph, but eventually after 100 pictures the cold sent me scampering home. I had forgotten my gloves, and photography with numb fingers isn't a whole lot of fun.

| A beginner to skating finds it enjoyable that at this moment she is not flat on her face. |

| With a grin worthy of Terry Thomas and no heed for the safety of his family, a father sends his sled careening into his son's. |

| Given time, boys will find alternative uses for pointy sticks regardless of the potential cost in lives. Oh the humanity! |
