So, who is up for ice skating at the Tower of London this year?

Tickets are available now at http://www.toweroflondonicerink.com/

~~It's usually the 6:30 session we go for, isn't it?~~ No, apparently it's the 7:45.

I had so much fun last year. Really wish I could go.

Everyone who will be in London should do this!

If you hear of something bad happening in Halifax... I did it!

Sorry, you're right. I've just checked last year's thread. So, 7:45 again this year?

I arrive in Londinium too late for skateyness, but will most probs be finding people afterwards, if people are findable afterwards..... last year it was the pub round the corner called something to do with mines? I got very excited as we drove by it last weekend.

Oh, I may be up for some post skating drinking as I'm sober on the sat.

there's no way I'm getting on the ice tho - sod's law means I'll break my leg 48 hours before grading day!

yeah

I'm ok

No one particularly cares about it/content, hence i'm just having a bit of a "shouty rich" moment - which everyone in *here* will take in their stride
It'll pass
and i'll be back to normal in the overall scheme of things....

till then i reserve the right to be a grumpy ARSE!....

You're always a grumpy arse....

You could buy the ticket and e-mail it to someone who is going to print out and bring for you, but that level of effort probably depends on how much you reaaaalllly want to go ice skating...
