BB's World a delightful film.
I found this on Youtube, wonderful little film.
A tribute to British naturalist and children’s author, BB. The last gnome in England follows a young BB through his life observing this giant’s fascination with nature and the Purple Emperor butterfly in the rapidly changing English landscape.

If you have no grease with you, and your rings are full of ice, do not cut out the ice with a pen-knife but get your man to put the rings one by one in his mouth, and so to thaw the ice.
