< not too bad with the apres ski stuff, one pair of boots for walking in couple pairs of jeans some roll necks and a fewjumpers just looks a lot cause it's bulky stuff, i used to have the fear working with a load of women if you wore the same outfit twice you were talked about so used to pack stoopid and now i dont care long as i got clean nicks,over shoulder boulder holders and socks im fine,

My biggest regret in life, although I blame my parents from sheltering me from the joys of skiing.
