2025 Worlds: Info and pre-game chat

Hmm, though I agree with you in general, as it happens I am grateful you brought it up for entirely different reason - I am struggling to find a moisturiser after the Lubriderm changed the old magic formula to something horrible and left me and my skin high and dry (literally 😉) I might give this one a try. It seems only the Americans understand my skin. Sorry for off topic!
Out in the wild west, with dry air winters and summers, and in skating arenas, cracked skin is a real issue. I wont bore you with my skin moisturizers but on splits, I use antibiotic cream with pain killers. In my old age, it just gets worse.
 
Chris needs a trip to Blackpool to broaden his horizons :biggrin:
I would love to go to England! So many historic sites, museum ships and museums in general. I just hate airplanes. I guess I am stuck with Panama, Alaska and Hawaii. :( Hummmm...there is always a repositioning cruise to Normandy and then a short trip to England! But then there is Indonesia and Thailand and Japan and the 56 ethnic minorities of China... :( At least I can talk with people from those countries....!
The trouble with being 76 is my clock is running out and I have had only 14,750 days with my current wife so those are precious too.

 
I'll look for you too .! I have dark red short hair , no hat and will likely be wearing a ping 3/4 length coat!! would love to meet you and all other Golden Skate folk !!
I still have my lanyard and cred pouch with a Goldenskate official hat pic in it!
 
Are you able to send me the link to follow because I'm still not finding it.

Thank you
The main page I found through Google is here (https://results.isu.org/events/fsevent00120669.htm)

As we get closer to the event, another line will appear at the bottom of the page that says Starting order/Result details. You click on that to get to the "usual" page with links to results, starting orders, judges scores, etc.

For an example of that second page, look at the 4 continents equivalent. If has the same URL as worlds, except that the 669 is changed to 658.

I did see some totally different looking page for 4 continents, but eventually found the one I know and love. Or at least understand.

Note: if you scroll down the main forum page, you'll find the sub forums for various events, with the "current event" first. That entry contains a link to the event results page (the link I gave you is labeled "entries", the second page labeled "results" or "detailed results").

Hi Chris - there's always New York to Southampton by boat - https://www.seat61.com/queen-mary-2-transatlantic.htm

By the way, the "Man in Seat 61" is a great resource for non-flight travel - I use it a lot for journeys to skating events.
 
Anastasia and Luke seems to have lost their luggage. I´m really hoping this will solve quickly :pray: I see they got a reply directly on X so i´m hoping this will help get it quickly:



I was just thinking about yesterday about lost luggage and how stressful that would be right now when it´s not only Worlds but Olympic spots at play :eek2:

Particularly for pairs, which will only have three spots available via the Beijing qualifying event - one of which will go to Russia and one to the Chinese pair moving up from juniors...

Let's hope that they can find some sort of solution with the bags...
 
Simon Briggs tweeted 4 hours ago they know the luggage is still in Dublin. I´m guessing the luggage didn´t go with the transit, maybe the layover was too short? I know that happens sometimes. In those cases, the luggage usually comes later, but it sometimes take a while. But hopefully they can speed up the process given the circumstances.

All though a horrible situation, I think it´s a good sign that they know where the luggage is located. It´s a good thing they arrived early. Hopefully they can get it sometimes tomorrow and will not miss too much practice time.

I´m wondering if Kristen Spours might be affected by this as well. She isn´t coached by Briggs, but the British team might have been booked on the same flight? I guess it depends if they did the same transfer or not. Spours might have come from someplace else.

Kristen lives the opposite end of the UK. She skates out of Swindon, and lives somewhere in the South of England. Ana and Luke are Dundee (Scotland). There are plenty of direct flights from Heathrow and Gatwick to the US, and I would have expected Kristen to travel from one of those. Ana and Luke will have flown from one of the Scottish airports and would have needed to go via one of the London airports or Dublin to get to the US. What could have affected Kristen, though, is the disruption there was at Heathrow before the weekend.

Thanks for clarifying. Good to hear Kristen is flying from somewhere else. Hopefully there is no more lost luggages. I didn´t realize they trained in Scotland. I thought they did a transit in Dublin where the luggage got lost (thinking about it, it doesn´t make sense though). I guess that means if they lost the luggage at Dublin airport it didn´t even make it to the transit?? Oh that is bad really. How could they mess up with the bags so badly it didn´t even leave the first destination? :( That means they would need to get the bags out of Dublin and then if there is no direct flights they would rely on the bags not getting lost during the transit as well. Yikes. Hopefully there is someone that can make this high priority :pray:
 
I checked Anas IG story, they arrived in Boston already 20 hours ago. So that they are reaching out to the airlines 4 hours ago means they havn´t been able to get any information or progress of their suitcases in 16 hours :( And Simon Briggs wrote 4 hours ago that they know the suitcases is still located in Dublin which means nothing has happen with the luggages for half a day.

Heathrow airport was closed all day on Friday. It had a major knock-on effect on other UK and European airports. Any planes which were already in the air had to be diverted to other airports. It probably created chaos with baggage as well as with flights.
