Skating on thin ice

Monkey has stocked up on the Berocca as the medialand Christmas party season gets into full swing this week. Tonight sees the Holby City festive press knees-up, with a screening of the BBC1 drama's Christmas episode followed by ice skating at Broadgate Circle in the City. But what's this? The invite stipulates: "Ice skating is a strenuous activity and carries an inherent risk of falls and sustaining injury. There will be no obligation to participate and we would recommend that you do not if you are suffering from any health condition which may be exacerbated by doing so (eg back problems). We would also advise that you must not skate if you have been drinking alcohol." Alcohol? At a TV press bash? Never.
