DOI TOUR - BIRMINGHAM

Love it here. Great hotel, 5 minutes walk to arena, centre of town, people very pleasant and we're here for a week. Washing needs doing after two weeks on the road!  The practicalities of life. 

Tiger is doing brilliantly and is being looked after by various of the girls and Robin at various times. There's a pool area in the hotel where I think he should have his first swim. Well 8 weeks old it's time.

Show is changing with some of the skating couples really getting to grips with their routines so for us judges there's different results coming up. I've met people who are coming to the show 14 times!!! Goodness... and they will always see something new.

I got the judges dance right tonight - after 14 shows I've got it. Now to work on my style!

Love 

Nicky

:O Shocked! That's £700 for 14 tickets!!I know the show is good, but...

And you havent washed for 2 weeks?? (just dont do it in the swimming pool) ;)

Its a LOT more than £700 cos we got rinkside for 10 of them!!!! And by time you add booking fees etc!! And trains and hotels!!
Well worth it though just hope the credit card hasnt melted too much.

Tracey and Kirsten (Scotland

ps Nicky see you in Liverpool!!

Wow! I thought I had factored in rinkside and fees, never mind. They should give you special rates for being a frequent customer (groupie?)

I was going to go to Wembley, but...? Roll on the day when the arena is built in Brighton!

Hi Nicky,

Enjoying reading your blogs- you've certainly developed a style of your own.

Now, tell me if you will.....if Suzanne is unable to skate due to her persistant ankle injury- why can't she do the aerial routine, which let's face it was absolutely beautiful and would certainly satisfy her fans and the punters?

Let us all know if it is, would be great to see you both on the ice together again.
