When am I an "Old Codger"?

You know you are an Old Codger, when you ski in black and white.... (take 2)

I'm seeing a 2 footed carve there,....now, where's Trencher :lol:

Those look like leather boots as well, great photo :D

Well I feel like an old codger to day, after the day I have had, I swear its aged me 10 years.. Started off with some dozy woman driver bombing down a hill, turning left and not seeing us, how we missed her I dont know, but the way we braked and skidded across the road has given me whiplash, I cant move my neck, head and shoulders. Got to work, we have workman in putting a new roof on the entire shop. First they cut through the power lines cutting out most of our appliances, then they were using tar and bitumen, bearing in mind thats its a huge roof, the fumes and smoke came down through the air con, all day long staff were either passing out, throwing up or having asthma attacks. Then they set fire to the roof we had to evacuate the store, you try telling old bids, grumpy old men, drug addicts and shoplifters they cant have their stuff. Got back in, got back to work and one by one five of my six computers crashed.
I need a very, very large drink.

Never mind you will soon be skiing :D

I know cant wait. :thumbup:

And Rose,

When you are skiing (or riding the chair) today's events will come to mind and they will provide you with a good laugh. That's the important thing in life ... laugh and don't let any of what seems bad get you down. :mrgreen:

Your day's story sounded like an episode from Faulty Towers. :!:

We had the first snow of the season in Nova Scotia today .... all wet and will be gone by morning ---- but it is a start.
