Snow blindness ;)

[glasman]

Did you bring Olive with you to grease your skis with fish sauce?

[firewatch]

i hate winter-makes me bones ache! but so like a bit of snow makes me feel festive!

[joggerjayne]

glasman ... you pay far too much attention, LOL !

[tenrec]

I so wish I could ski. Too old to learn now!

[old-wos-is-name]

never thought of water skiing, was thinking snow. also thought jogger jane was a pensioner (as she knows so much about wine).

[boxtops]

Swiss snow, JJ? They reckon the Scottish resorts will the GOOD this year!

[mushroom25]

typical scottish ski slope....

snow...ice...rock...grass...tree stump...gravel...rock...ice... (or any combination thereof)

ah, at least hire skis take all of that in their stride.

[joggerjayne]

I find hire skis are really good.

I haven't bought my own skis since we all switched from alpines to carvers.

[erin-x]

I wish I could ski.. I'm not allowed to because of my knee :-(

[jno]

is that like switching from analog to digital? Increases your download speeds and stuff?

[joggerjayne]

Oh no ... not even with a strap, or support??

[erin-x]

Nope... I wanted to go to Austria with the school in my last year but my doctor told me no :-(

[joggerjayne]

jno ... sort of.

The change is not to do with speed ... it's to do with control. Does that fit in with the analogy?

[jno]

more like installing an antivirus programme, then.

I can't ski - my ankles turn at the sight of a pebble, and my knees haven't worked since they got hit by a car years ago. And I hate cold anyway. So I just take winter sun holidays instead.

[joggerjayne]

Aww, jno ... it's really not that hard.

And it's something at which I can whupp my bf's butt, ha ha.

And you can do it in a weekend! God, I love modern travel ... !!

How did our parents ever get by ???
