I think they may not light as they have become squashed I got the idea, originally from YouTube and they often store them in little containers like camera film cases etc maybe I should have done this !

Read somewhere storing them in straws then sealing the ends with wax, glue or something else. Now that sounds a very nice method.

Icy road running in boots, trousers, and vest. Only 1km at a time, but every bit counts. Also, the cold weather conditioning really helps reduce your gasp reaction when you enter cold water, which could save your life if your car goes off the road and into a river. It's that gasp reaction that leads to so many deaths of people in cold water.
