It's closed and crawling with police and it's not known when it will open again!

What is the world coming too???????? ”

Yes I saw that on the news too - isn't it one of the rinks used by DOI ?? Sure I recognised it from one of the tapes on the programme last Saturday

Yes, Streatham has been on DOI. But not too much. I believe only Phil Gayle and Neil Fox trained there. A lot of the training is happening at Lea Valley and Slough.

You can spot Streatham as it has a red 'skirting board' around the ice.

Rink still closed today and tomorrow too due to Saturday's horrific events.

That is awful - I understand the boy wasn't even at the rink but ran there to escape - is that right ??
