Well today was the second ice-skating trip and l am glad to confess l am safetly home without a bruise; well, just last weeks one still on my arm!!
I'm really not sure how long this event will carry on for after all it was supposed to be a treat for Claire and she spends the whole time stressing - just a few of her comments:- "great yes thanks just stop in front of me" "are all boys thick?" "I can wait" (sarcastically) ..........what l try really hard to get across is that most; (not all) skaters are probably no better at skating than us, but she sees it that there all out to do things on purpose !! Maybe she's too tired after school or is just very frustrated at not being able to wizz about yet !! Only time will tell - l think the classic comment of the session was when a little boy was slipping and sliding around in front of Claire and wouldn't let her past - she began to make all of the usual comments and when l said "Claire he's only a little boy" her reply was "exactly what's he doing here on his own then?"

I am laughing at Claire's comments just like someone else I know!

You are doing well, 4ft socks this time?!!

believe it or not Helen yes 4ft socks again mine aren't high enough to go to the top of the boots - l just roll the sock out across the floor - gets everyone out the way and a bench to ourselves !!
It's really comical whenever l get a pair of boots there always odd laces in different colours that really bugs me - some fashion statment that is !! l can see why Dave thinking off investing in some decent one - instead of spashing out just yet l'll see it as a lesson in being humbled !!

Well done for staying upright. I'm hopefully going to go during next week AND take the kids on Saturday - plenty of opportunity to crash and burn!!
