Go for it !!
If you miss skiing why not go again?
I'm sure you have asked the relevant medical types if there is any functional reason that skiing should be off your agenda and assuming that all the broken bits have healed well - book the trip.

I suppose if it were me the key bits would be ...
Get fit, and then a bit fitter still (plenty of good muscles and flexible joints will help you)
Take it easy for a while.
Maybe make sure you start again by skiing with someone competent to look after you???
Professional maybe - I don't know but seems sensible to me to have someone looking after you.

My only really proper ski injury (knee) was a while ago. UK Doctor said I'd never ski again ....
Disagreed!
Skied again - and went on to live in the Alps for 5 years and that injury was in 1984 - and not hurt myself much since.
So - you're bad luck is bound to be over
:D

At last! An easy way of comparing ski holiday value...

You simply have to ask; "would you like to go skiing for a week, or have 60 rolls of woodchip wallpaper?" ...

Shouldn't that be 100 rolls of woodchip wallpaper? I thought we'd pretty much established that it costs at least £1,000 per person to go ski-ing/boarding for a week if you include everything ...

Wake up!!! The whole point is B-S has a week for a £100 air ticket :)

Done

You MUST - a house move is incredibly stressful and you will need to unwind for your HEALTH !!!!
Otherwise you will probably not survive the move.........

Indeed Ian - but you are a real meanie taking Little Wickers and not letting her ski!!

But Ally - methinks you have a selective memory!!
You forgot to factor in how much your fines for poor behaviour cost for the year.
:roll:
To the best of my knowledge, and I admit I never saw the final tab, this was in excess of 400E.
