Ice skating is a popular sport these days. But it is by no means a new past time. The oldest ice skates ever found are said to be over 5,000 years old and they were made from the leg bones of either a horse or ox.

Every day we can read in the press about compensation claims for all manner of injuries or affronts. It has led us to what has now been dubbed the ‘compensation culture’ where people hire injury lawyers to extract money from anyone and everyone in any case, instead of taking responsibility for their own behaviour.

Now, it’s not a big lounge, not the type where you could hide someone behind the curtains or anything like that, but there was a definite hissing nonetheless. I looked around me, I even looked under the sofa, but nothing. All was quiet and I began to think that I had imagined the whole thing. When she came back into the room, it happened again and she took no notice of it until she saw my face. She then pointed to an air freshener up on the wall.
