Sooooooooooooo,
the kids have been taking roller skating lessons at
St Clair's, in Woodville. It's $3 for an hour-long group session on the rink with an instructor who gives you tips, helps you improve your technique, etc. The kids love it, so I decided I could do this too - I skated many eons ago in my distant youth, with the skates you wore over your shoes - remember them??

I was really stoked to pick up this pretty pair of purple quads at the junk markets this week for ten bucks - awesome! I thought I'd practise for a bit at home to get the feel of them. And then suddenly - BANG!!!!! I go arse over tit and land hard on the kitchen floor. A trip to the Emergency Department later, I have a small fracture diagnosed and a lovely cast. Must remember to wear pads next time!
