London has been invaded by the world’s best skaters! Our city is hosting the World Figure Skating Championships this week.
It means there’s a little extra pomp and circumstance in the air, several downtown streets are closed to traffic and loads of international media are here. Figure skating appeals, generally, to women more than men. Free-FM is a classic rock station so men are our target listeners. Derek came up with ways for men to cope while the competition is on. Here are 5 things to do while she’s watching the World Figure Skating Championships:
5) Tell her there’s a spelling mistake somewhere on the text on the ice and suggest that she finds it.
4) Sit in the back seat of the mini-van in the driveway with a stack of Monster Truck Videos.
3) Get the puck out.
2) Wear that stained old sweatshirt all week. She won’t notice.
1) Leave towels on the floor, leave the seat up and eat junk food. This only happens in Canada every 5 years. Make the most of it!
