GET YUH SKATES ON.

Now come on, let us admit it. We all love a bit of ice-skating. Well, those of you who DO know how to skate must love it, the rest are on my team.

The festive winter season has begun and what a way to start it with the grand opening of the Natural History Museum’s ice rink. The winter ice-skating season has definitely begun as many people were storming in through the gates of Natural History Museum’s ice rink. With its beautiful surroundings and bar serving warm hot chocolate and mulled wine, a trip to the ice rink is the perfect way to get over those winter blues.

If ice-skating is your thing then you’ll definitely love this. I’m sure there are a lot of people out there struggling to wait for this time of year! But then again, it’s even more hilarious watching people fall flat on their ass and literally cry of embarrassment.. Or maybe pain? Hmm, I DONT WANNA JINX MYSELF.

Okay so I’ve picked out a few places which I think will be the best year, as per usual in London town. Get down to at least one of these ice rinks and you’ll have an ace time. Take a whole bunch of friends and end up with crazy stomach aches after fits of laughter watching each other fall!
