Well done, Tino.

I feel that we should bestow an honour, I just wondered if "The Duke of Zermatt" would be acceptable?

The honour would, of course come with a small stipend. This might be in the form of more humble J2ski Zermatt visitors buying your beer ~ yes, I know I have been pushing that you are going to be doing all the buying ~ but you are there now, and we are not.

Oh, and have you started some drawings yet?

One of my top three resortson the world, (although I'm still investigating...)

Distance & time correlate to 10mph, with a slope of opposite over hypotenuse, ie sine of 719/2877 = 0.25, thats an angle of, err,err where's my slide rule?

I believe him. The Ice Age has returned.

The speed issue is subjective in so many ways. There is no measure, nor way of measuring. 10 miles an hour might be frightenly fast to a beginner, while more experienced skiers are in full and quick control at 50/60 mph.

Would liked to have joined you this year, but we are making a culture London trip a few weeks later, too far for two visits. But do have a good one, those that are going.

Wahay, a snowflake just fell into my glass of white wine!
Bandit declares the season open! Included a couple of Lake District turns.....

Not sure if New Englad area might be the closest, Stowe or Killington. Historic snow reports are not good. Our Trencher is based a bit inland and north, and boards at the end of November on a good year, I recall.

Colorado would be better, but is a 5 hour flight to Denver, + 3 hour drive.

Hang on, Emma, I just spent half of the Autumn sorting out your 2011 Tirol season pass! And now you are deserting!
