 | Here's a picture of our mascots; Berit the Bunny and Andy Anka (Swedish for 'Andy Duck') engaging in a little petting session on the ice. Andy is our No.1 mascot (but don't tell Berit). He is wearing the same costume as we wore for the Swedish Championships of 1997. We came across Berit because we had to draw rabbits out of a sack to decide our start positions. The team said to me "Andy, whatever you do, don't pick start position No.1"... After the initial disappointment it was revealed that the '1' on Berit's blouse would have another meaning. |
Andy (centre) teaching the others how to fly! He is really stressing the importance of keeping the arms stretched to avoid collisions as we pass each other in the program. Margaretha (far left) finds the pattern of bricks on the wall more interesting. This picture was taken just before the Swedish Championships of 1997 when we were all just a little nervous!
 | Berit and Andy again, never known to be camera shy, with their skates on ready for another training session. Taken at Huddinge Ice Rink in the Spring of 1997. Cute aren't they? |
