Fellowship of the Rink
Firstly, stop talking about Buffy. Buffy sucks.
Secondly, Mark, it’s Roddy Woomble. Seriously, you can get in trouble for saying Womble up here in Scotland. I nearly lost an eye the other night.
Ok, today, on the first week-iverssary of my 19th Birthday, I decided to celebrate with my Burg crew. I decided the best way to do this was to go ice skating.
People (more or less) turned up at 2.30 at the flat. From there Jo, Ruth, John, Alec, Claire, Kat, Lauren, Scott and I went to the bus stop where we caught the number 30 bus. This was the correct bus to get. We just messed up, as a group. I didn’t do anything wrong. Anyway, this is a bus group shot, missing a few people.
So it turned out that we missed our stop. And then the next 5 stops after that. So we had a fair treck to get to the ice rink. There were nine of us, we were on a quest, John pointed out that we were the fellowship of the rink. I laughed and told John I would use it then give him props. John, take your props. On the walk we found a play area. After a brief play, it was on to our destination.
We made it, with half an hour to spare. With such little time left, we knew we had to GET OUR SKATES ON! Haha, now that’s a good joke.
I have decided that people need awards after the skating. Here they are in surnamical alphabetical order:
Alec wins the award for most spectacular speed skating fall. It was the only fall…during the only race. But it meant I didn’t lose.
John wins the award for best (unintentional) tap dancing on ice performance. The spirit of the dance is within you.
Claire wins the award for THE MOST ANNOYING TOP. I know it’s not ice skating related but Claire, seriously, that top is annoying when stroked downwards.
Ruth wins the award for safest skater.
Josephine wins the award for best putting up with me picking stupid activites to celebrate my birthday with. Well done for not falling over Josephine.
Lauren wins the award for most unexpected skater. Thank goodness she found the tenner in her jeans pocket or she may not have been with us.
Kat wins the award for most ridiculous fashion choice for ice skating. Skinny jeans’d.
Scott wins the Billy Elliot award for aspiring talent. Reach for the stars.
I win the award for organisational nouse and for being a navigat0r X-traodinaire.
This is a group photo. Enjoy it.
Hopefully once I gather photos from other people there may be some more amusing ones. Wait and see!

A most excellent trek indeed. Also, in that last picture I look like I think I’m too good for group photos.

huh! my award wasn’t skating related, i am offended. i should have got the award for worst fall, or most screaming.
plus that technically isn’t a GROUP photo at the end, but i’ll deal with it.
other than that, i think those photos reflect the best 30mins spent in long time, top notch!
have another birthday outing soon please.
