“One thing I wanted to WINKLE out...” he says. The cheek!

As @bobsawyer observed,there's nothing like hot punch in such cases.And if ever it didn't help, it's because the patient didn't take enough

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Sam lit the fire and made me snug in bed, where he brought me my dinner and hot punch. Followed by 2 or 3 more bowls of it.

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

I ran home, wrapped up in a selection of the ladies' shawls, as fast as my legs would carry me #frozen

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

It was all so much fun until I fell through the ice
I lay flat on the bed of the pond.Hat, gloves, handkerchief floating on the surface 🎩👐❄️

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

And another shot of the leader of the Pickwick Club, taming the ice

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Here I am at another angle

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Wardle convinced me to perform a slide, which I must say I executed rather well #christmasday #Wintersports

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Sam displayed a beautiful feat of fancy sliding currently denominated, I believe, 'knocking at the cobbler's door' #iceskating ⛸

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

I ordered Sam to remove Winkle's skates.
I then took Winkle aside and told him in no uncertain terms he was a humbug and an impostor ⛸😡

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Ben Allen expressed a desire to 'bleed' Winkle, who politely declined the kind offer.He was trying to smile, but all he depicted was anguish

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Winkle struck wildly against @bobsawyer just as that gentlemen was performing a flourish of unparalleled beauty on the ice.

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Snodgrass helped Winkle get his skates on.
Snodgrass, who knew rather less about ice skating than a Hindu.

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Nathaniel Winkle on ice-skating. Expressed exquisite delight, whilst looking exquisitely uncomfortable. ⛸😕

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

Lunch involved lots of strong beer and cherry brandy. It will be followed by a touch of ice-skating #graceful #elegant #swanlike

[Samuel Pickwick Esq @pickwick_samuel]

And they're throwing the oyster shells at the fat boy (who's asleep).
Ah, the eccentricities of genius!

Delighted to hear @bobsawyer and @benjaminsallen are downstairs already, smoking cigars and eating oysters with their feet on the table.
