John Kirkham’s Skate Fever Roller Disco’s are kicking off on the 5th July with the first one being held at Xsite at the Xscape Castleford in Leeds West Yorkshire.

I’m so excited have been for weeks and John’s kindly asked Rachael to DJ so no doubt the music will be fly.

I’ve uploaded some more photos from last nights Roller Disco at Billie Rox in Manchester to my Roller Disco Billie Rox Manchester set on flickr. Myself John, Dan, Debs and Rob went over after GeekUp. There are not as many shots as usual I was having too much fun skating so didn’t get out the camera much, but there are a few - enjoy.

Ice Rink in Southport for Christmas

Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007

Today I found out from Kerry’s dad about a temporary ice rink in Southport similar to the one in Manchester. The ice rink is located in Southport Town Hall Gardens and upsettingly like the Manchester ice rink closes this Sunday 7th January 2007. I will lucky get to go skating on the rink this weekend, we were originally taking Shannon to ice skating at Blackburn Ice Area but Southport is a little closer and won’t be much longer.

The 400 metre ice rink lets you skate around the giant Christmas Tree in the Town Hall gardens and opens at 11am till 8pm, sessions last one our and cost from £4.00 for children and from £5.00 for Adults its slightly cheaper than Manchester’s ice rink but that’s because its Southport.

Roller Disco @ Billie Rox in Manchester

Saturday, December 30th, 2006

In the wee hours this morning while doing some R&D for a new project I started a few days back, I found out about a Roller Disco that happens in Manchester at Billie Rox on Portland Street every Tuesday and Thursday night! Since a collegue at code computerlove told me she had seen a poster around town about a Roller Disco, since then I’ve been trying to find out about it. I’m going to be attending the next event on Tuesday 2nd January and I’m really excited!

Me and Rachael have previously travelled down to London for the Roller Disco in Kings Cross and the London skates from Hyde Park, its great to see the North getting more attention. I hope this is the start of much greater things to come in the Northern Skate Scene.
