They won't be the only ones! Though we'll be by the pool...

Mens World Cup Slalom and Giant Slalom in Val at the weekend.

All really depends on conditions, at the moment there'll be enough powder on a lot of pistes to a 'have a go' without leaving the piste!

Just keep doing what you are doing, building experience and technique in varying conditions.

Get the basics from taking a lesson or two then get the miles under your skis (on piste), another lesson or two and repeat.

Ski with people a little bit better than you if you can, it'll pull you along.

You're on a steep learning curve at the moment, so you'll progess quickly. It's when you start to perfect techniques that progress gets slower. But you'll enjoy yourself getting there!

Tell him to become a plumber, almost every chalet I've ever stayed in has had some sort of plumbing related challenge!

Enjoy! :D

I'll be there Saturday :D.
