I am going to spend my christmas money on one of these http://eu.fab.com/sale/3856/product/92964/
Do you think that would be ok?

having only skied in austria, it would have to be gluhwein and like NellyPS it has to be apres. Feels too much like drink-skiing to imbibe during the day.
off to france for the first time this year so interested to find the french equivalent :)

I negotiated with my optitian a prescription daily lens that was a compromise so that distance was driving legal but not 20/20 so that I could then read the menu (at arms length!). works for me :)

i wear disposables for skiing. Keep a spare pair and my specs in a hard case with me.
The only problem I had was the fluff from my hat sticking to the foam of the goggles and then getting in my eyes. But done away with that as I wear a helmet now (don't want to start the hat v helmet debate up tho!!).

oh that's no good as my week is 9 days :(

(btw, I Ally I started my paper crossing off the days sheet today alongside the sleeps till list and it is getting very exciting :)

I know we are all revelling in the thought of the real stuff but Bassingbourn dry slope is under threat of closure from MOD. It's a fab club so can I ask you to take a quick mo to sign the petition to keep it open?
