Obviously ice skating is going to be a ball, you could stick a kid in a frozen horse box & they'd have a laugh but they ain't footing the bill are they. It's hugely expensive & it's not like they're paying amazing, helpful people to properly monitor the folk on the ice, the skates are utter rubbish really so I presume it's just very expensive to keep the ice cold, that must explain the massive costs, saying that, if you go during extremely hot weather, don't be surprised if you find them closed, perhaps the expensive entry fee doesn't always keep the ice frozen !!!
