The phrase 'cold calling' took on a whole new meaning when a workman left his daughter’s phone on a soon-to-be-frozen ice rink.

00:00Hi, so I'm Rob, the director of Ice Edge Group.
00:03This is Willem on Ice, or Milton Keynes,
00:05it's our new ice rink.
00:06When we were making this, one of the workers
00:08has gone onto the ice, placed his phone down,
00:11and unfortunately, he's forgotten about it.
00:13It was actually a phone he'd borrowed from his daughter.
00:15So overnight, we've froze the ice
00:17using fire hose from the edge,
00:18didn't spot the phone there.
00:20When we've come in in the morning,
00:21we've then discovered this.
00:24So after discovering the phone in the ice,
00:26the obvious thing to do would be to remove it.
00:28However, we've got team icicles coming in on Saturday,
00:31that's the GV Syncro team,
00:33and they need the whole rink to perform their routine.
00:36So if we were to go ahead and remove the phone,
00:38we're then looking at closing this area of ice
00:40for the next week.
