Thanks for the updates Sube, much appreciated down Ipswich way

And a few photographs from the meeting, starting with one showing Swiderski preparing for the meeting wearing a dubious hat:

I don't believe they can all have stayed upright:

Fortunately Swiderski dispensed with the hat when he took to the track:

A possible future Elite Leaguer, as Slawomir Drabik's son takes to the ice:

And one for the Drabik family album as father and son battle it out:

Swiderski gets himself into what our heathen colleagues refer to as a "fankle":

But he's in complete control in this one:

And finally it's dodgy hats all around on the podium, with Maks Drabik joining the top three:

Swidders is famous for his "dodgy hats" ;D along with his friendly nature, and fantastic moves on the dance floor

Well, you see, that hat is useful, since the flaps protect his innocent ears from hearing crazysue and Chris Louis talking about masturbation.

So do I, I wasn't complaining about his headgear, I mean't perhaps he will get some more ;D

And another possible ice outing for Swiderski, as Rafal Dobrucki has plans for an ice meeting in Leszno this Sunday and Swiderski is a confirmed starter:

The meeting, which will take place in a square in Leszno, is weather dependent.

A bit of a delay in Opole while the fans cheer Piotr Zyto, Andrzej Hawryluk and Ola Mysliwiec who have taken to the ice. It seems they've received a great reception. But what about Opole's most famous son and Poland's lone world champion Jerzy Szczakiel?

Edit:

Not to worry, the greatest applause was reserved for the VIP guest Jerzy Szczakiel, who has now been presented to the crowd.
But there's no Adam Skornicki, as the reigning Polish champion is feeling under the weather.

And so another successful ice event for Swiderski as he claims second spot behind Mateusz Kowalczyk, with the semi-retired 39-year-old Miroslaw Kowalik third and 42-year-old Slawomir Drabik fourth.
