Global warming is obviously having an effect - the centre of Brisbane has iced up...
The council has put in an ice rink in the main city square. It's easy to be cynical - we're constantly being told we need to cut back on the power we're using, but they're running an rink in the middle of a subtropical city for a month. Plus inline skating has been bannned on this square for a while - you can roll through it but stop to have a mess around in a quiet corner and you get moved on pretty quickly.
But it's looking to be very popular, and for some people it will be their first experience of ice outside. Hard to be curmudgeonly when so many people seem to be enjoying themselves.
