Once upon a time I could get my legs that high, too
Lordy. Olympic gold-medal-winning ice skater Robin Cousins is sixty years old today!
Why the interest, I hear you ask?
In my youthful heyday, many people thought I looked like Mr Cousins (no bad thing, I must admit) - even to the point where I signed a little girl's autograph book "Best Wishes, Robin Cousins"..!
Nowadays, I look more like Bea Arthur.
Hey ho - let's have a bit of ice skating madness to celebrate!
The UK did well on the ice in the seventies.... there was John Curry as well, wasn't there?

There certainly was - and, as well as the 1976 Olympic gold-medallist, he was Alan Bates' lover... Jx
DeleteI was a wheelie girl.Where I'm from ice was in the scotch!
ReplyDeleteThe only time I went on the ice, I scagged my finger falling over, and still bear the scar. Nowadays, my ice is reserved for cider or for gin. Jx
