My eldest (19) is the other extreme and did a ski instructors course in his gap year. He is always up for tagging along for a cheap ski holiday (we can't get rid of him, he certainly doesn't mind going with us oldies if we are paying!)



Yep, sounds familiar. I've got a nearly 22 year old son who is in that mode.

Snapzz, chill, don't rush her. I do think the idea of taking a mate along might be useful.

Maybe there is some mileage in taking one of her mates with you, or booking with a like minded family who she is friends with? It COULD be a parent/child thing going on here - don't like being told, don't want to do because you do, etc. Maybe.


Tony - it's one thing putting pencils up my nose and pants on my head, but claiming my ideas for your own is just too much

That was MY idea (page 2).

Sorry Snapzzz

Yeah, the day she brings home 'Mr Right" will the day she gets locked up.
