Missing Website
For some members who are not Tiscali customers they may not have been
unable to access the website for a couple of days this week. The
ISP which hosted the website is part of ISP '184K' and they have been in
dispute with Tiscali over payment. This week this escalated with tiscali
cutting off access codes to 184K but continuing to providing continuity
of service in the form of temporary access to all users that on the
Tiscali Network.
The Clubs website is now hosted on I12 and Tiscali so it should be
available to all. Apologies for any disruption.
Remember if you discover the website is not available for a period of
time pleas send an e-mail to
admin@murrayfield-isc.co.uk
and we will check it out. the e-mail is hosted by the domain register
and as it is separate from the website will still work. |

Congratulations to John & Sinead
Kerr in acheiving a place in this year’s ISU Junior Grand Prix final
which is to be held in Tokyo from 3rd to 6th December 2009. Their
Bronze medal at the Trophee Eric Bompard in Paris and their Silver
medal at NHK, in Japan, went towards acheiving their place in the final.
This is the first time since the start of of the ISU Senior Grand Prix
series that British skaters have secured a place in the final.
We also wish John & Sinead the best of luck this week at the
British Championships in Sheffield, where they are skating to
retain their British Senior Ice Dance title.

Winter Wonderland - Ice skating in Princes Street |
|
There is no 'official' opening ceremony this
year as this is taking place at the Christmas tree on the Mound, however
some Murrayfield skaters are taking place at the Skating derby. If
members are interested in supporting their fellow club members and would
like a mince pie (and mulled wine for the older members) they have been
invited by the organisers to attend. Members in Edinburgh should have
already received a poster from the Gilded Balloon Productions which will
allow them entry on Thursday. If you have not received one and would
like to attend then
e-mail us and we will send you a copy. |
