If you haven’t skated together at Somerset House are you even a couple?

The Natural History Museum doesn’t even have half as much game


Happy couples. Happy skating couples, looping gracefully on the ice, as you watch from the sidelines. Happy couples laughing as they slip and are caught in a loving embrace, as you watch from the sidelines, your pockets filled with Quality Street wrappers. Happy couples at Somerset House.
