Things are looking up#

Well, some things. Two skaters I met in the park on Saturday afternoon unfortunately weren't, and having steered left to avoid one of them, he noticed me at the last minute and decided to swerve the same way: could almost be described as a meeting of the minds. Then his friend went into him ...

Damage to me: cut above eyebrow which will some day lead to a fetching Harry Potter-style scar, slight nosebleed (which won't). Damage to him: split lip or gum (not sure which) and probably some concussion. Ouch ouch, mostly on his behalf.

The weekend was otherwise largely uneventful. Good drills session on Sunday morning left me realising that my one-foot balance still isn't all it could be.
