The sides of the court are being built up for flooding, and lights are being installed for night skating. With an unusually early winter this year it is hoped the children will have plenty of skating. At any rate, they'll have more than usual as our brief freezing spells will be sufficient to freeze the court, while to freeze Swan Lake deep enough for safe skating takes several days by which time thaw usually sets in,
