Forget the Time Capsule, for Glaswegians of a certain age, Crossmyloof Ice Rink really was the best fun in a million years - even if it was a little past its sell by date towards the end.
Crossmyloof was the place where generations of weans laced up their first skating boots and learned, bit-by-bit, how best to avoid minor injury, with the ultimate goal of showing off to their pals - and that special someone they fancied.
First opened in 1907, the ice rink, which was conveniently situated right next to Crossmyloof Station, was improved and expanded over the years to become the biggest ice skating venue in all of Europe.
