Ta for the tip, I bought some Soverign (sp?!) skates. All the rollerblades were too manly and chunky for my liking (not me mention extremely expensive). And the only decent blades were pink
So I opted for plain black skates instead - will be testing them properly when I got home from work tonight

Nah not boring at all - if it is something you've always wanted to do then go for it
Just make sure you give me some discount if you make anything I like
