Nice one! :thumbup:

Bathrooms...pah :)

I started skiing at 50 & now 66 & will be going on my 19th trip in 4 weeks, trying to do as many trips as poss as time is running out.The free pass is something to aim for but the seniors is a help when available :thumbup:

I'm totally in this camp.
Learned at 31 wished I'd done it years and years before, making up for lost time.
Like Ian we've got things need doing at home but I'd also rather have a couple of ski trips than refurbish the bathroom. Live it while you can I say.
Crammed in something like 20 weeks skiing into a shortish space of time and planning many many more

I'm trying to persuade my oh that we should go more than once a season as we are not getting any younger. Its not working too well at the moment! Unfortunately its not something I would want to do on my own as part of the enjoyment for me is the company, and someone to pick me up if I have a fall.Its 385 days since I last skied and if OH work project due to finish easter doesn't go well could be another 345 sleeps before the next ski. Will a trip tp Milton Keynes snow dome help me???????????

Bonjour from La Plagne. Had a fabulous couple of days so far, snow is fantastic but it's VERY cold, think I wore all my clothes today.

Now doing the Brit thing and watching the rugby during happy hour. Tres Bon!

Oh, and it's snowing :)
