City workers can inject a bit of fun into their lunch break with a skate around this circular ice rink in Broadgate. Conveniently close to Spitalfields Market, it's also a great place for Christmas shoppers to take a break with a spin on the ice. Some weekends are set aside for private hire so check dates and times before you go. For those who like team sports with an unusual twist look out for their unique Broomball sessions. It's a bit like hockey but instead of curved sticks you get - you guessed it - a broom. And instead of skates you slide around in trainers which can be hazardous in the wrong hands (or feet).
