and live on Freeview channel 276
In their Facebook post, they posted a picture of the skates, and wrote: “Anyone out there own these roller skates?? They were returned to sender, and that was to us! (But we did not purchase or send them)".
The skates had gone all the way down to Wembley, but weren’t delivered, so were sent back to The Orchard Bar, in Canonmills.

She said that none of the staff skates, and joked: “I used to skate when I was much younger, but they’re a bit big for me I think”.
As of yet, no-one on Facebook has come forward with any useful information. In fact, Lorraine said: “Most people just laughed at it. Our regulars had some funny comments”.
However, Lorraine has the name of the sender, and is hoping to track them down on Facebook when she has a free moment.
