I had a double one done several years ago. Now I'm old but it only took 8 weeks to be fully fit again before I was back playing cricket badminton and then skiing. Seek doctors advice first but if you get yourself fit and go careful you should be OK.
Where to go for Xmas?

Bald-eagleman needs help. Many people have said that before but now it is really true. My OH has decided that I should not go skiing by myself this year so I have to plan a joint trip. Truly beloved is not an avid skier….firstly 'cause skis don't have brakes and secondly her idea of a mountain holiday is walking and reading and finishing in a swimming pool. SO….I need to find somewhere at Xmas that is snowsure, has a good number of easy runs that can get her back to the hotel solo, a place with a pool/sauna/streamroom etc but is not so expensive as to break the bank. My list so far is 3 long…Alpe d'Huez, Serre Che and Selva (I really want to ski the Sella Ronda). And Oh….the group may expand from 2 to up to 15'ish. Any other suggestions would be welcome.
I agree with Tony H. Serre Che every time...Lovely long blues, easy greens and some nice gentle reds if you want to tax yourself. 70% of the resort is in the tree line and as long as you do not go to late in the season you can usually ski right back to the villages.

Ski jumping is where you race down a steep hill and fly 300 feet through the air.

There's just got to be a better way to meet nurses!!
