Well, I hoiked my skis up on my back and trudged to the closest thing Cambridge has to a hill, and did 4 or 5 runs before getting bored. I've done it though, and that's all I wanted. Getting my bindings adjusted was super easy, it turns out!

Gooseh,
I was in Cambridge (Girton College) at the weekend, and I didn't see any hills anywhere. Where did you manage to find one? I hope the effort was worth it :D
When I lived in London we used to go sledging on Hampstead Heath, which was only a couple of miles away. That is a good hill!

Ally,
Girton college is ON a hill! Not much of one, mind. It's certainly pretty noticable heading down Castle Hill in to the centre, though.
What I did today wasn't really skiing, to be honest, but it was worth it. Certainly fun.

I love that my little Christmas tree that I planted in my front garden and put lights on now also has snow on it. How festive is that! :D

THAT was a hill? Good heavens, you should come and see some of ours :D We've got one, in our local village, that's got a gradient of 1:5 and you can only get up it in first gear in a car. I was extremely proud the first day I managed to bike all the way up it :D And you should just see what happens during the summer, when the poor holidaymakers have to do a hill start on it :lol:
Anyway, I'm glad you had fun. That's what Christmas is all about.
Nelly, I'd love to see your little Christmas tree. Just don't let that sheep it! :lol:
We still haven't got any snow at all. But it's just as well, because when we do get snow it blows off the fields into the roads and it's 20 foot deep in the road, because of our high hedges.
