London Ski show 2011

Attended the Scottish Ski Show yesterday. It was quite good, although not big, I did manage to meet some old friends and one special new one. The star action was Danny MaCaskells trick cycling team.

We were supposed to be given a day lift pass per person for a Scottish resort. Good theory, but in practice, it was expected that you would have to queue twice, for between 20 min and 30 min each time. That bit was not well organised. We had our Guide Dog trainee with us, and while threading through crowds was a really good traing experience, queing for nearly an hour was not something that I was going to subject him to.

Big pre-season buzz, though!

Don't think we are going to make the show after all. :cry:

Hmmmm

Ok perhaps for fitting boots it's not the best place then.

What about going along for getting discount clothing and stuff? IS it actually good value or just the latest bells and whistles stuff at r.r.p.?

There is new stuff in this years "must have" colours, however there are always a few shops with bargains. You can always haggle )

That is a shame, but you are being saved from more impulse buying )

I shall endeavour to take up the challenge and achieve a credit card that glows red 8)

Haha, dont go expecting to get a bargain in gear, its just an opportunity to get stuff thats usually not in stock in retails around the UK.
If you are a trend setter like me, you'll already have this years "must have" colours from last year )

Green/blue and red/blue is the way forward, trust.
