Manchester Roller Derby: February 2012

http://manchesterrollerderby.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Friday, 10 February 2012. Why I am keeping my derby name. I’m not even meant to have a derby name yet. I haven’t quite passed Minimum Skills, so it’s only a provisional name. Technically, I have no right to write this post. However, I am going to, because I’m never going to skate under my own name, and here’s why. Okay, you can put your violin away now. This isn’t a sob story. And here’s what it has to do with my derby name. Rachel MRD = Sonia. Go Sonia! Posted by Rachel H-G. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Manchester Roller Derby: December 2012

http://manchesterrollerderby.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
