Pah, is that it! I've fallen over at at least 10 dry slopes and injured hundreds... bring it on

[esprit350]

see you on the ski slope then Bibs?

[Bibs]

I certainly hope so, well you'll see me flying past at speed trying to remember how to stop!!!

[lisalotus]

Just had the manager of the ski slope on the phone, I,ve managed to talk him into securing us a bit of the carpark, so we dont have to park next to any 4x4s, (nice man ), he wanted to know roughly, how many are there going to be????????????????.

Hi Howard, you do realise that dry slope will knacker your snow ski,s .

Is Renu coming????????????????

[esprit350]

myth re dry slope wreking snow skis, I have used well maintained skis on both, depends on the quailty of the matting. However I might just have a dedicated pair or two for dry slope use.

Not sure if Renu is coming yet, probably yes

[esprit350]

Hey is anyone coming skiing and partying this week end or not?

Lisa would like some idea of numbers I think...

see you on sat

Howard

Hi Guys

Sorry not going to be able to make it.

Completing on my flat that weekend and will be packing like crazy!!!

Have a great time to all those who are going!!

For anybody coming on saturday, I,ve just had a look at the met office weather report for saturday and its not looking to good , rain, rain and more rain, if by some miracle the weather men have actually got it right for once, then I think we may have to cancel, cos I cant see anybody wanting to drive all that way in the pouring rain,(hooning in the rain, aint much fun ) just to get soaked to death on the slope. I,ll keep an eye on the weather forecast to see if it changes, If anybody thinks otherwise, or has any other suggestions please let me know.

[Guest teigan]

it would be so english to bring an umbrella along when skiing down the slope.

[lisalotus]

Cancelled due to lack of interest and awful weather
