Its only banter old chap

Phew, thats a relief, I thought I was gonna have to find a lift pass that covered the whole of Tyrol!

You don't consider yourself to be at all competitive do you Tony? :wink:

Grey suspenders Tony, have you no sense of colour balance?

Rarely read novels. Usually have 5/6 books on the go at any one time.

So:
Bathroom, Private Eye mag, and "Rembrandt", Michael Kitson

Bedside, "Windmills and Waterwheels Explained", Stan Yorke. Also "Highland Warrior", David Stevenson, detailed academic effort at the 17C civil wars within Scotland. Dry as butterless toast.

Conservatory, "Scottish Covenanter Stories-Tales from the Killing Times", Dane Love. Horrific killings in the name of religion.

Living Room, "Andreas Hofer" Lousia Mulbach, Hofer led the Tirolean resistance against Napoleans army.

StudyStudio, "Rain on the River" selected poems by US poet Jim Dodge. "Puppy Training", Julia Barnes, "The All Mountain Skier", Mark Elling.

I was of course refering to the overall mileage on the piste maps.

Mayrhofen 157km, Wildschoenau 70km, conceeded.

Zillertal Superski Pass 625km, Kitzbuhler Alpine Pass, 676km.

It's starting to get a bit daft, I only need one run at a time, be that in Mayrhofen or Niederau. :-)

or far to go when you are on them

Longest run in Mahrhofen ~ 5.5km

Longest run in the Wildschoenau ~ 7.0km

:P

Rose, thought I was having a bad day with a one legged woman and TWO guide dogs, (we are boarding one for a week, and it is a bad idea, but they are boarding ours for a ski week.)

So thank you for that, I feel so much better.

And much, much sympathy for you of course.

May I recommend Glenfiddoch?

Scuse me tino, mein freund, totally untrue, (on both counts), I played three sets of tennis after the posting, an unlikely post-7 drink achievement.

What about marks for artistic merit?

Noooo, don't answer that.
