I find myself looking out of my window in Glasgow and all I can see is white with continuous snow falling.
Has anyone ever had the sudden urge to take their skis to a hill and have a bit of a blast? :D
I certainly am right now.. (all be it dark now, but there's always tomorrow!)
Ever had the urge...?

Skiing: the art of catching cold and going broke while rapidly heading nowhere at great personal risk.

I've been very tempted but too worried about damaging my one and only pair of skis to risk it :D

Just take them to a hill that you know for sure has grass beneth the snow :D

My thoughts exactly. But when you see snow it does make you want to ski on it.Lynn_D wrote:I've been very tempted but too worried about damaging my one and only pair of skis to risk it :D

Really thought about it last night, then remembered how much i paid for them. Im thinking about buying a crap pair for times like this.

We had a good 6 inches last night (if anyones seen the news, Basingstoke seems to be on it a lot, that's where I live) and there's a field outside my house, not much of a slope though, although I do have some old skis in the loft...

Basingstoke was hell!
Was there for a meeting and had to get back to Oxford, got in at 11:45pm. Started to try to get back about 2pm, gave up and waited until anout 9pm before trying again.
Love the snow just not being stuck so far away from, though not much in Oxford when I got back so a little disappointed that I couldn't build the anual snowman with the kids in the morning!!!
