Chapter 11- Ice Skating Idiots

See this chapter really only applies to those who have been ice skating but if you've ever been walking through a busy corridor I'm pretty sure you'll get the picture.
PEOPLE WHO STOP IN THE WAY- why? Why is there always those few people who think its absolutely fine to stop in the middle of the passage way or right in front of you to either wait for friends, chat or text. This means if you're coming round the corner at a fast pace, chances are you're gonna crash into them. Then you both fall over on the cold wet ice with your skates all jumbled up like an unfinished jigsaw.
PEOPLE WHO SKATE REALLY SLOWLY- ok, I know you might be a beginner but if you're going to skate that slow, skate on the inside ring holding on to the flipping barriers/handle thingy (I don't know what they are called but you know what I mean). Mainly because, you trip everybody else up and some people (me) cannot skate that slow so instead we just fall over!
PEOPLE WHO TRIP/TRY TO RUN ON ICE- What idiots, well done not only did u fall over like a spacker but you have now torn up the ice with all your scrabbling. The idiots are mainly the younger generation who obviously think "skating? What a load of utter nonsense, imma try running on ice!¡" And that's exactly what they do, they run, then fall over right in front on you either making you fall over or injuring you! THANKS A LOT!!
PEOPLE WHO SKATE AT A REALLY HIGH SPEED (SPEED SKATERS)- these people look like they could have your ear of when they skate past. Plus, they have almost knocked me over so many times (almost, I said almost) i believe its a health and safety hazard.

And the worst, the absolute worst...
THE PENGUINS! These are little plastic penguins that little kids can skate round and hold onto so they don't fall over. Good idea right, ABSOLUTELY NOT and there's not just penguins, there's polar bears and seals to but believe me the penguins are the worst!!!! I know what you're thinking, "why Sophie? Why are they the worst? How bad can they really be?"
Well this is what I'm going to tell you now. For example, you're skating along and then, BAM a kid pushing a penguin comes bolting at you (top speed, no joke) from the other direction. And they are, the kid included, quite small so you usually trip over them without knowing apart from the fact one minute you're skating and the on the cold ice. My last problem is that the kids don't just ride them, when they fall off the kid goes one way and the animal another! Its like an obstacle course to try and dodge them both because you need to take a moment to remember that, your ice skates have blades at the bottom, sharp blades because that's how...um....you ICE SKATE?!!!? So if you were to accidentally pierce the kid with your skate you're screwed! I'm not even kidding. #seriousface
Ideally, they should have a penguin/people who cant skate zone with a big red sign on the entrance and exit that says "KEEP AWAY! PENGUIN ZONE!!!" I'd like that. Or (because the penguin people have to wear a coloured bib or else anyone could nick a penguin) on their bibs in big HUGE red letters it should say "beware, blinkin' dangerous! Keep away!" That would be good too, just saying.
