Skating on Ice

With the cold weather during the last few weeks, frozen lakes and canals have been crowded with skaters. It was said about a million pairs of skates were sold during the period. With it saw an increase in number of hospital cases for broken arms, bruises and so on. In the office, at least two of our colleagues were strapped up for bruises suffered from fall during skating.

But now the cold spell is ending up. Ice in lakes and canals starts to melt and becoming increasing thin and too dangerous for skating. Hopefully we will have another cold spell. Would be nice to see the crowd again on ice.
