Rinking

The new cafe at the rink is gaining in favour every day as is evidenced by the large number of ladies who go to the rink every afternoon for tea, where they meet their friends, watch the rinking, and listen to the music." We also learn that the Central Roller Rink, later the Central Cinema, on The Hayes, was reopening and that the Olympia Rink in Queen Street - later the Olympia Cinema - offered perfect facilities and had been a popular rendezvous of many thousands of people throughout the summer months.
