He also shouts "bloody ironing" everytime my mother gets the ironing board out :mrgreen:


I nearly was given a parrot a year a ago, I don't think I would have been able to resist teaching it all the rude stuff, so perhaps it was a saving grace.... :wink:

I have a 5,5 year old boy that has been skiing for the last two seasons.
Last February, he started skiing Red runs with extreme ease.
Most important is his attitude towards the runs, that amazes me.
My question. Does anyone know of a good ski academy (with school curriculum)for this potential and future ski champion anywere in Europe.

Thanks,
Jose Carlos


Sounds like your living your missed youth through your son :shock:

I like a moan, don't fly with them, pay a bit more and fly with someone else :wink:

I don't know about you guy's but I always find this time of year depressing I have just had the snow update for LGb and the snow is receding quicker than my hair line, 140 cm on the upper and 40 cm on the lower and dropping rapidly daily and they are fairing better than some other resorts where the grass is beginning to show though.
Once the mountains have gone through the full cycle and green has replaced white I'm fine I can view the beauty again though a new set of eyes and happily spend a week of my summer holiday playing in the mountains, till that time I'm depressed........ :evil: :evil:

Errm, I'm not sure you are meant to eat the whole horse Lisa, just the mane bit. :twisted:

And it's quite a good meal, if you have to eat on the hoof. :shock:


I guess she must have been hungry, at the moment I'm listening the Carole Kings Tapestry, I have forgotten what a great album it is/was :wink:
Glad you had a fab time, hows the ankle ?? 8)
