I think we used to get the 2B up from Clapham North to Streatham.
Bet the route no longer exists I still go past the ice rink now and again on my travels.

Now you've stumped me. I used to go to Cinatra's/Sinatra's which I *think* was in Croydon itself. And then there was some other club on the A23 around Coulsdon somewhere - was it Sundowners????
We need Soozy; she's a Croydon girl

I remember all the above (now that Soozy's jogged my memory)
You have to feel sorry for Jennifer, not only is she going out of the competition tonight but to make matters worse shes dressed like a toilet roll cover too.

It's not the best of outfits (bit dated).

I agree. I'll be a bit gutted if he doesn't win.

No, I don't think I did. I don't remember the Orchid either.
Actually, Croydon was a bit of a slap for us when we were older - we were living over Bromley way by then.
Last time I took to the ice was in Disneyland Paris.
It wasn't pretty....

True.... but I like them to be the whole package F or example, Jorgie is a good skater, but I just can't take to her... Jen is nice but can't skate..... and Chico is an Ok skater, but....

I think the skate off will be the pair routine.

I used to go to a club called tights in Bromley (or was it Beckenham?) I had my hen night there - Mr Woo had his at Dr Jims in Croydon.

That's the one - i think you've got the spelling right. how funny to think that some of us were probably at the same place possibly the same time in our youth!
