Sport in general has a very bleak future as long as current restrictions continue.  Without the lower leagues and feeder teams, elite sport will also wither eventually.  The same goes for the performing arts.  Figure skating too.

Rod Turner used to go to MK, before the lockdown.  Not sure if he still does but try contacting them: http://www.johnturner-tcg.co.uk/Contact/Contact.aspx


Otherwise he'll do postal


He's always been good for us

Ah splendid.  I might need to move!  I suspect what makes it easier is if you're essentially a closed group of friends, invitation only, not taking money.  I will give it a try.

Yup, haven't wrecked my leg but am 55... I am sure you will get there.  As you have probably worked out, it's a confidence thing.  On my inlines I have the option of trailing the toe wheel of my free leg as a comfort blanket, but you'll no doubt have a toepick...


£24 an hour, that's amazing.  I don't like to pry, but did you have to do a risk assessment or anything like that?  Was it just you?  Feel free to tell me to mind my own business, but if I could find somewhere like that I would happily fund it and invite up to 5 friends to skate with me - at £4 each it would be a bargain.

Interesting - good to hear it.  Bumpy surfaces undermine confidence quite dramatically in my experience - but I am old and fearful.


Out of interesting, how were you able to get hold of an indoor sports hall?  I am looking for something like that myself.


What do you think is stopping you with the 3-turns?
