I'm not that good, but I do train at Streatham so I can use the teaching ice. Which can be a bit scary with several elite dance couples also training, but it is their off-season so fairly quiet just now. And yes, I've usually gone by around 10:00, don't often stay on until 10:30. Some of the adults do, though, so you may have met some of them.

I'm a bit sad actually because this coming week is half-term so that means packed rinks and no opportunity to practise properly outside of my lesson - do you think it'll be back to square one when I return to the ice in about 10 days time? My skills feel so tentative and new that I reckon the smallest thing could steal them from me!
The funny thing is that first day back one often skates better than ever - and then it all goes to pieces next day. Hope you find some ice, though.
