P. 6

You can’t tell me that this point would ever penetrate the hide of a woolly mammoth.
Well no, it’s not like that...
And it’s so bloody cold to handle. Plays havoc with my chilblains. I need to kill a mammoth to get the skin to make the gloves so I can handle the spear. It’s a catch twenty-two situation.
The Ice Age actually refers to...
And this knife. I made it out of a piece of ice I found in the river, but does it cut? Does it heck! Bad enough trying to cut cold meat, but hot meat...? It’s just turns to water...
It’s part of the earth’s cycle of climate change. At the moment we’re going through a cold spell. You must have noticed; everybody’s talking about it.
Oh I’ve noticed all right. Bloody freezing in my cave last night it was.
It’s not so bad. Get wrapped up in a bear skin with a nice big fire going.
Nice big fire? I should be so lucky! Three hours I spent last night banging those lumps of ice together, and not a spark, not one solitary spark. Bloody Ice Age.
That’s all folks! Hope to see you all again soon. Have a nice summer!
