Christmas Skating Gala

I didn’t Blip last night as I was so tired.
The day started with Sabrina going to Lucy’s school for their nativity and song Christmas show. It was wonderful. I just love it when children sing together, it always makes me emotional. The Nativity scene was really well done - until baby Jesus in the manger got knocked off the stage with a loud clatter! So funny.
Straight after that at midday we had to get both girls to Stirling Ice Rink for the figure skating Christmas show. Which wasn’t until 5.30pm. Before that they had lessons and practice so all that time for Sabrina and I was spent hanging around in the cold. They do have a nice cafe there where I had hot soup, a roll and banana and blueberry cake. The cafe is near the front entrance and each time the sliding doors opened a blast of cold air wafted in Brrrr!
The actual show was fabulous - scenes from famous films and musicals. Amelia and her friend Mia were nuns from Sister Act, Lucy was a girl from Les Mis and got lifted high in the air by two other skaters, she loved it! Both girls had other parts to play. There were some lovely solo skaters too.
I didn’t stay for the finale though as my legs were aching and I was so cold. Melanie gave me a lift back to Sabrina’s and it was so good to get warm.

I’m off home today and tomorrow is choir performance.
Hope you have a good weekend! :-) X
