Rob Beckett

And I don't know what the new girls, new parents, mums and dads look like.

And I don't always know all of the other parents that have been there for a few years.

But that's fine because I think they're aware of me.

They're aware that you don't want to be their friend.

Exactly.

So I was just waiting.

I thought, what I'll do is whoever smiles at me, I'll assume that they're here for the party.

Yeah, so people are just smiling at Rob Beckett, smiling at him.

I don't want to talk about the third person, but basically there's a bloke off the telly, stood at the front of an ice skating rink.

Yeah, you might smile at him.

That does a parenting podcast with loads of parents walking at him and I'm just smiling at them all.

And at one point I went, are you here for the ice skating?

Of course they all were.

It was a bit of a lottery in trying to work out whose kid was who, but Lou should have done the welcoming and I should have been putting the skates on, I think.

yes so how was it once you're on the ice all good first five minutes were probably the most stressful moments of my life did you get everyone ready and then all on at once or were people dribbling onto the ice when they'd got their skates done i'd say about 10 went on straight away and then the rest sort of dribbled on because they were a bit that some people turned up later but i'd say the first five minutes as they were getting their bearings it was chaos my my youngest award was legs everywhere like

Yeah.

She's quite tall.

It was like, this is actually dangerous.

And they were all soaking wet.

But then after a while, they got used to it.
