    What happened to the fig newton?

    How about a black pot of water, a thermometer, and a timer?

    V and I were talking about the funnel over breakfast this morning. Thank you for those 5 mins! Great piece of video.

    Unfortunately, clouds covered the sun around the time we popped the fig roll into the funnel, hence the rather unsatisfying end to the film. Newcastle is not notably sunny in March, however, so we were pleased to reach the temperatures we did, even briefly.
