my brother's spending my future inheritance :evil:
My dad has a habit of calling me from wherever they may be around the world watching the sunset with a glass of wine in his hand. They never call me when they're in the country.
families eh :roll:

My injury is not stopping me from skiing, it's all pschological.
I didn't really want to bring it up on this thread as Julie was looking for advice to carry on skiing.

However, now Tony's brought it up... if all else fails, try boarding :mrgreen:

I feel your pain, I'm in the same situation (but at a much lower ability level).

On my last trip I was with my husband and two sons who are a lot better than me. Unfortunately, it made me feel like I was the worst skier on the mountain. I did better when I went down a run ahead of them rather than being left behind.

The best day I had was when we stuck to a certain area and there happened to be a group lesson who we saw a few times. I was managing a lot better than them and I had my best afternoon's skiing ever as it bumped my confidence.

A lesson/lessons certainly wouldn't do you any harm but, as has been said, I'd also hope my friends would help me along for a little while.

Good luck :thumbup:

with my youngest being at a catholic school our holidays always incorporate easter.
however, a couple of miles down the road from me is the essex border and they seem to ignore it.

Having skied in Tignes in the second week of April last year, I could say we had a good week but I wouldn't be tempted to go that late again unless it was the only time I could go.
