Hi Zell, welcome to J2ski. Our second week will be the week before you, in Hinterglemm. We will be hooking up with other J2s in Zell. So when you arrive, we will already have pushed off past Kitzbuhel to our next location. Have a good time!

What is the mode of failure, Tino? Hve you googled to check if there is an incidence of failure?

Having written some ski songs, I felt some empathy with the man. Trying to write about skiing, and it's emotive qualities, without it sounding like a bunch of pans clattering together is a bit tricky. He is a long time skier, so has been through the experiences.

I will have you know Trencher, that binding failure is no joy for skiers, either! Once had to ski down in the dark, on one ski!

Happy first season! May it be the first of many!

Thinking about this, Alistair, I suppose that nowadays, we now operate differently. I stuff some of the pictures I want to save on FB and photobucket. I recently had a FB friend request from a lady that had seen my FB Alpine paintings, turns out she is a skier, so thats OK! Hence, I guess our individual stories are still there, but they have gone electronic, and they can be shared.

Craig is a poet, who's titles inlude "On the Slopes". He is on BBC2 NOW!
Best of all is "On the Slopes". Raine has noted that, "It's really ****** difficult to write a good poem about skiing."

Alistair, you might take the view it made Klammers day! No scrap book, waste of time, live for now and tomorrow!
