Yes it is but removing ice from pavements and gritting does not 100% clear the problem and can sometimes make it worse.

Scarlet Fez, a colleague of mine has had the same problem and it was diagnosed as a prolapsed disc in his lower spine which was linked to the Sciatic Nerve.
However, depending on age, determines whether you need to have an operation or not.
My colleague does and it is an 8 week recovery period.

Hope you get well soon.

We have the same problem were I live.
A notice from the Management company read: -

The local council are unable to grit the roads and pavements due to it being private land.
The management company will not grit the roads or pavements as we will be liable for any accidents.

I thought thats what insurance was for?

I just looked at them webcam pictures too.
Shame were are not going there until March.
I guess we will have to put up with ADH instead!!!!!

Andyhull, I have to say that I think that the paradiski is the best resort in Europe.
So much to do and such a brilliant place to learn and develop.
Is that the Arcabulle Lift in the picture by any chance?

why the sad face wickers?
Is it because a lot of us are going on holiday in 18 days.

An update regarding this potential holiday to Zermatt.
Flight out LGW 9th Jan 0755.

500 per person, catered chalet Kamanga (which got mixed reviews).
This will cater for a party of 20 (currently I have had over 30 people express and interest).
I am awaiting further information from the TO as I have specifically as for Lift Pass Deals to be included (either BOGOF or included in the price for such a large group booking).
I have also asked if there are any other chalets located near to each other to accomodate a few more peeps.
This is the first response I have had back with a cost so I will expect a few more in the coming days.

What is people initial reaction to the price?
If I look on Crystal Ski for 2011 it is around 700 HB

I dont like snow in England.
It is embarrassing how we cannot cope.
It took me 7 hours to 79 miles yesterday. Not as bad as some areas but still a complete joke.

We should be ashamed of ourselves.
