The jacket's lovely, but I'm with the others on the cover up. Stay well clear of the Tipex, Dulux or anything else you may be tempted by - sparkly bits are fine :lol:

Great photos – it looks like you all seemed to be enjoying yourselves. :D

Still, it’s hard not to have great time on a ski holiday. Next season can’t come soon enough! :lol:

This doesn’t really seem to be getting off the ground, despite Caron’s best efforts ... I’ve looked a few times, and with the exception of a few photos (which are really good :D) and the odd introduction, nobody seems to want to talk! :(

Brilliant :D

Congratulations Caron – that’s great news! :thumbup:

LM – Hope you get sorted soon. Have you heard anything back from your MRI scan yet?

I wasnt shouting about it-clearly I am more inexperienced than I thought I was!
But I agree, interesting thread-if I do ever start instructing Ill take all the points on board!

Sorry if that was taken the wrong way :oops: - I didn't mean anyone on here, just in general. I can see why doing an instructor course would be beneficial, even if you don't necessarily want to teach (which I'd be absolutely hopeless at!!)
I've got very little skiing experience myself, but happily acknowledge the fact that I've got loads to learn. :D

I guess I’m in the minority, but I find it really difficult to take photos using a viewfinder. Now I’ve got an LCD display (the camera is Samsung, though haven't a clue which model) :roll: it’s great (except in really bright sunlight), though not sure my photos would stand up to a critique by anyone who knows what they’re talking about. I’m definitely of the point and click mentality and it seems to do the job just fine for holiday snaps. :D

I don't think so, this nonsense speak and use of made up words is a uniquely native-English speaking disease.

Guilty as charged on this one, though I do have the sense not to use them in the company of people I don't know, in case they think I'm crackers! :roll: :D
