    “The pricing for everyone to skate has gone up from last year , it has gone up by £0.50p for the children to skate. They had a sign saying the corrected prices from last year, and they also have it on their website http://tinyurl.com/c5wu2l7
    So may i correct you in the sense you were being 'ripped off'.”

    “They also charge whatever they feel like to skate. Advertised price is £2.50 for a child. My daughter and half a dozen friends went skating on Thursday and were told that because not enough people were skating they would be charged £3 each. I went myself today - charge still displayed as £2.50 I was told its now £3 but no-one available to change price on display ( by a very rude person Scarlett) . Come on you've had at the very least 24 hours. I for one will not be visiting again and will be spreading the word about their rip off.”

    “Always interests me.... another ice rink in the city, while the other rink a few hundred metres away struggles. Also the fact it opens in October, ohh well its nearly Xmas? Will it go/close just after the new year... no, until end of Feb... so a Xmas ice rink that last 4 months ( 1/3 of the year?). Also Strange this project never appears on the City Councils Tenders list? and its the same supplier each year....”
