Poor show

I have missed two weeks of skating. I had to work late the first week and was on holiday for the second. Holidays are good. I spent a week catching up with buddies in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Inverness. Will put three weeks worth of effort into next week's mini-ramp session.

New energy - new Mondays

The break from some sports (like skatin the ramp) can somtimes be a good thing, it gives you enough time to forget about the hurtin and the bruises have faded! while at the same time renew your passion for the sport.

Heres hopin Mondays is back to a girls night (at the ramp in Elgin), I'm not sayin it hasn't been great seein what the local (and not so local) guys can do but I have been really intimidated by the great skaters - they want to skate not wait around till the girls have had their five minutes.

I think it would be great for Elgin and the ramp if Mondays went from being a girls only night to being a beginers night open to boys and girls - that way you can fall around with lots of others that are there to learn and you would feel more supported - just a thought.
