You might need a hot drink for this one as we are all about the Frosty Boi himself - Jack Frost. Where did he come from, and does he have any basis in folklore? We take a trip back through time and over to our Nordic Neighbours for some frosty fun. Apologies in advance for any pronunciation errors - we did really try!
