I spoke too soon :cry:. I got a phone call from the hospital on Sunday asking me to come in for a further review. They had looked more closely at the X-rays and concluded that I have two fractured ribs and small puncture to my lung :!:. I don't know whether to be angry with the hospital for missing the damage first time round or impressed that they conduct a review of all X-rays to make sure everything is alright. In any event, my January ski trip is definitely off :cry: :cry: :cry:.

Hopefully, I will be full recovered in time for the February mid-term trip. I might also have to have a look at a late season long weekend to compensate :wink:

Meanwhile, the sun has shone on mrs h and her toe has healed sufficiently for the hospital to this morning confirm she will be ok to return to work and to ski in January.

That's great news Tony - marvellous Christmas present for both of you :)

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Welcome scull99 :)

I'm going to close this J2Ski group holiday to Folgarida now to new entrants. We've got 21 people in the group booked into 12 rooms in the Gran Baita hotel.

If anyone else wants to eat/ski/drink with us, we'll be in the Gran Baita hotel in Folgarida from Sunday 2nd February to Sunday 9th, and you're very welcome to book a room yourselves in this hotel, but you won't be eligible for our group discount.

Our 12 seater mini-bus taxi between Verona airport and Folgarida is full, but there is a public bus - the FlySki shuttle.

Flights that match up with the FlySki shuttle bus from the airports to Folgarida are:

Out - EasyJet Gatwick to Verona
Back - BA Verona to Gatwick

or

Out - RyanAir Stansted to Milan Bergamo departs 08-05
Back - RyanAir Bergamo to Stansted departs 17-05

Thanks Ian, lovely photo :)
It's SO NICE to see people ski-ing in Folgarida, where WE will be SOON !!! :) :)

Now don't be so greedy ;)
Going 4 times just wouldn't be fair to everyone else ;)

NellyPS wrote:Hmm I'm reluctant to put myself on here this year, I probably will go away, but whether I actually ski or not is another question. If we do go it will be late Feb/early March, which is only about 10-12 weeks away and although I'm doing my best to get my knee better, it's not looking good :(

Also my lack of input to the forums this year may have something to do with my poor old knee. Can't get excited this year. Booo!

Oh dear Nelly - maybe I should make a special entry for you on the list - ski-ing if knee well enough - or something?

Best of luck with the knee exercises etc. :)
