Man digs 25-foot snow tunnel from house to car
SUMMERSIDE, Prince Edward Island, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- A Canadian man said it took him about 6 hours to dig a tunnel through the snow from his Prince Edward Island front door to his driveway. Marcel Landry, 26, of Summerside, said he found himself snowed into his home after a Valentine's Day weekend storm dumped 3 feet of snow on top of the already significant snow around his house, so he decided to try digging his way out using a hockey stick and a broken plastic shovel. Landry said it took him about six hours to tunnel the 25 feet to his car. He said his fiancee would periodically use the key remote to honk the car horn to he could ensure he was headed in the right direction. "I was coming in every now and then to get her to use the car keys to beep the horn and I'd go back in the tunnel to listen and see a light flashing and know in which direction to dig and then I'd probe the hockey stick to see if I was getting close as the horn got louder," he told ABC News. "Finally I found the first car, 25 feet in." Landry said it took an extra week to actually get the cars out of the driveway.
Crossing guard in Scotland banned from high fiving children
A crossing guard in Scotland has been banned from high-fiving kids and parents are livid.Nkosana Mdikane, 74, who works outside two primary schools in Dumbarton and has become known as “Scotland’s happiest lollipop man,” was asked last week by the local council to stop giving the children the greeting. In a statement, the council said, “All patrollers are instructed when crossing children over a road to remain static with one hand on their stick and the other stretched outwards. This ensures that they can be seen and effectively provides a barrier between school pupils and traffic.”David Dutton, a father of three didn’t waste time setting up a Facebook page - Save The High Fives - to get the council to reverse its decision. The page has received more than 14, 000 likes and a petition on change.org has been signed by more than 10,000 people.On the Facebook page, one person posted: “What a lovely man: it is this type of person who should be a model for our kids rather than the pernickety sumph in the council who tires (sic) to squash it.” Dufton told the Telegraph that the man affectionately known as Smiley is “out there in all weathers. It's a bit unjust. I've never heard any one ever complain about him. Nkosana always puts a smile on people's faces."
