This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

If they had participated they probably would have ended up on the top of the podium - pity.
I would respectfully suggest that this is a "nothing" open event in an Olympic year. Participating might not contribute to more important preparations and might not be worth the $$ offered.
