Priest, there is plenty of resort skiing in the UK. Scotland is currently enjoying the best winter ski season for years, there are photos here...

Also, England has a number of ski hills which are open for skiing right now...

Additionally this winter, skiers have been using their skills in Wales in the Brecon Beacons National Park.

We have a few indoor snow skiing facilities, and lots of dry ski slopes too :D

This year one could ski in quite a few places in the U.K. at the beginning of January, because there was masses of snow.

This is a photo of our dog in the snow in our road. Effectively we had a 2 mile blue run all down our road for about a week, only passable with a 4X4, and one of our neighbours did actually ski down it (although I haven't got a photo of that unfortunately). We had between 2-6 inches of top quality snow. It was a great pity I didn't have my own skis and boots or I'd have been ski-ing down it all week.

If you click on it, the photo gets bigger.

And lots of people were ski-ing down our local hills/mountains - the Preselis :D

do you mean your dog does everything better than you?

I do not understand!

I'm very sorry everyone, that I accidentally caught my dog in an embarassing moment (I had no idea until I looked at the finished photo - it was taken with one of those 'old fashioned' cameras). I do have some photos that he'd probably be happier with, but the 'blue run' doesn't show as clearly.

Trencher - we got our dog as a rescue dog at 7 months, complete with his unusually beautiful tail. Our local vet says that in fact he still qualifies as a collie, because he has the 'stare' and the 'crouch' and his tail doesn't come into it. But as you say, he must be crossed with another breed somewhere - only I have no idea what. He is a lovely dog and we are all very fond of him. The holidaymakers like him as well, especially the kids, because he will endlessly fetch sticks and balls when they are thrown for him.

Priest - I'm very sorry. They were supposed to be looking at the snow in the photo, not at what the dog was doing :lol:

Oh ahahaha.....

Ally, no offence intended or taken, I just found it amusing! He is just doing what dogs do. :-) Altho I had to open it up to make sure I wasn't seeing things.
