668.0. "UK Ice Skating Championships" by KERNEL::ROSE () Wed Aug 04 1993 07:33

    
    Hi, everyone, 
    
    Last week on the Meridian news it was announced that Basingstoke has
    been chosen to host the UK Ice Skating Championships this year. 
    
    Does anyone know when they are AND, as Torville and Dean are going to 
    be representing us in the Olympics does that mean they have to start 
    to compete in amateur events (i.e. like this one in Basingstoke) ?!
    
    Thanks

    I think they said the event would be held in December.  I don't know
    about Torville & Dean.

    Thanks for the info, I'm so silly really, I should just phone the Ice
    Rink and ask them. I'm sure they'd know.
    
    Bye
