The hilarious gap-year emails that never reassure parents | the Daily Mail=

With any luck that will work if not you will have to copy & paste it.

Its emails kids on gap years have sent to their parents telling them what they are doing! Wonder how many sleepless nights their parents had?

My favourite is the last one!

DEAR Mum and Dad, I know it is very dull to talk about the weather, but it is minus 30 degrees today (in northern Russia), so I think I am allowed.
My shampoo freezes every night and children aren't allowed to go to school because they walk too slowly and tend to freeze to death before they get there. Nice.
I am slightly worried, because I walk at the speed of a lobotomised snail, there is five inches of ice on the roads and my new boots have strayed far from their natural habitat (the wilds of High Street Kensington).
On the first day of unbelievable iciness I happily stepped outside and within minutes my mascara had frozen my eyelids closed and my nostrils had iced over. After another few minutes I lost all feeling in my extremities, so by the time I reached the institute I couldn't see, smell or feel.
I walk so slowly I am often overtaken by octogenarian babushkas shuffling along in felt slippers with massive sacks of turnips on their backs. Every day Ludmilla smugly informs me that it is another 10 degrees colder than the day before and happily tells me how to notice the first stages of frostbite. Can't wait to warm up, Lynda.

Omg!! this one is funny!!! but I did get the impression it is like this really in winter
