Knottwood Christmas Party
ADVENTURE - XI


A

nd then it was time for this year's SPECIAL ENTERTAINMENT - which (with all that ice) just had to be figure skating, of course. The Knottwooders were treated to a dazzling display of Pairs Skating offered up by reigning World Champions LORELEI DRIZZELL and BRENT MICHAEL SCHUMACHER...

What a COUP, to score an appearance by the reigning pairs champions!.

Organizer Peter Linsell innocently had NO idea how narrowly Drizzell and Schumacher had beaten Knottwood's own Lars Lindquist and Nancy Hanbro at Worlds, the previous March...

They were pretty pleased about their win...

But while the Knottwooders generously acknowledged that the dazzling Canadian pair were almost as good as Lindquist and Hanbro...

They were pretty pleased about their win...


...all the children agreed the BEST part of their routine was a SPECTACULAR FALL...

bloodthirsty little beggars!

...which Isobel P. Hanbro actually didn't cause...

POOR Lorelei!

The sympathetic gasps of the adults fortunately drowned out the heartless GIGGLES of the children...

Everyone was properly sympathetic...

...And they DID receive a GENEROUS ROUND OF APPLAUSE...

It was a BRAVE performance...

And THEN it was time for...

ooo.. who's skating NEXT?

...Lindquist and HANBRO...

(Nancy and Lars are SUCH pros!)

...Skating as POCAHONTAS and Captain John Smith...

One of their FAVOURITE programs...


...to a stirring JOSH GROBAN medley...

Ummm... strange choice of music....

Lars sweeps Nancy UP...

Lindquist and Hanbro waste no time...

...into one of their trademark spectacular LIFTS...

At THEIR age!

...And everyone AGREES...

A model of perfection and interpretation!

...that they really are superbly graceful, as well as athletic...

Wow! A DEATH DROP!

...As the GASPS from their audience attest!

Everyone is awed by their flawless skill!

ISOBEL puts it BEST...

At THEIR age!

What a WONDERFUL evening it has been!

(But what of poor, POOR BETHANY UNDERFOOT?)
