It's official - Duhamel & Radford retire from competitive skating

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.

Two very wonderful people; no doubt about it. I'll miss seeing them in competition. I hope there may be other opportunities.

Still a determined young lady, I am sure she will accomplish many feats listed on her to do list. I also like some of her recipes. :D

Yes, she's vegan, bless her heart, and those are very healthy recipes, I expect. It has made her my favourite skater of recent years. She's a gentle yet strong soul.
