At Christmas time, the Council sets up an ice rink in the city. It used to be at Piccadilly Gardens, which was a dog's breakfast. The new one is at Spinningfields, away from the bars, so it's a much better location.
I went skating, and surprisingly managed to say on my feet the entire time. Most people were falling all over the place, careening around the rink in complete chaos. In the photograph, the kid behind me was a total menace, staggering around the rink at speed knocking people over. I spent a lot of time avoiding him. But, given my success, I might give it another go.
