Just had a call from a mate in St Anton - dumping big time

Just want you want a "verbal" postcard every day - started off on Friday
night with a series of text messages of how he was stuck at Dover for 4 1/2
hours , then Sat was about the long traffic jams to get into Switzerland and
then up to St Anton - and Sun was about the wind and snow, and now today,
about how much snow is falling and can I check when it's due to stop - the
answer to that being possibly Friday - there are only four lifte open that
they can use, but the snow in the trees is makeing for great tracks through
the trees, that are loaded with some of the heaviest snow he's seen for
quite some time!!

Only trouble none of this is falling in the Southern Alps - oh well just
over a month to go......."Wait and See"

Regards
