I nicked this off a link from Rivington Alpine. Having looked through them, a large proportion could be awarded to some of the guys I went skiing with this season

FYI, I am Number 15 :)

There are only two types that matter - people who can ski and people who can't.

That's a touch arrogant, Mr Bum, who decides who can ski and who can't? :)

I prefer to say there are two types: those who go skiing and those who don't! :)

It's not. People who can't ski are those who always complain. Slopes are too busy, there are too many beginners, too many snowboarders, wind is too cold, chairs are too slow, there are too many gondolas or too many drags, runs are too wide or too narrow, snow is too hard or too soft and grooming doesn't stay perfect for long enough. They are worried too much what other skiers are doing behind them instead of watching their own lines. They will stay forever on top of an empty run until the crowd catches up with them and then complain that hearing others approaching makes them nervous. They want the mountain to accommodate them instead of sucking it up and adapt. The rest can ski. Regardless of their level. They just go and do it.
