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!

Two weeks in the resort of your choice.

Yay! I'm so excited and I'm not in the slightest bit ski fit or even booked anything. But it's inspired me to get a move on with my knee-hab, swimming, gyming and Physio overdrive.

We always have a beer on the way back to the hotel, dinner and then we go for a walk and that also usually ends with a drink somewhere. Not very often we have big nights out anymore, can't do that and ski the next day.

Where are all these oldies coming from?

Me and Mr Nelly started to look at holidays yesterday, as always we checked Tripadvisor, and it baffles me that people who go on a skiing holiday can give what appears to be a fabulous place (according to everyone else) less stars because 'the wifi was rubbish/no english TV channels/the food was all French'. Really? I tend to ignore these, please tell me I'm not alone?

I know everyone likes to have their little luxuries on holiday, but surely you aren't going on a skiing holiday to watch TV or worry about wifi connection? Isn't a holiday a break from the norm?

I've always found Birmingham, generally, to be rubbish -)

Which is why I now live in Hampshire.

Thinking of going on the Saturday. Maybe.

Feb definitely too soon, working hard to be ski fit for March/April. Maybe the following winter!
