      Ah … better … Hmm … I think that I fail, on this question. Can I try a riddle instead?

      I used to think that the answer was “at the North Pole”, but with a little bit of flexible interpretation it turns out that there are an infinite number of solutions around the South Pole … [I can hear the groan from here!].
