Tignes
Although the early snow hasn't hung around on the lower slopes, I hear
conditions are great on the Tignes glacier. Lifts didn't open until 11 this morning - too much snow. Off there tomorrow morning, first trip this season, will report back. Pete www.grasski.org |

Milton Keynes Where am I skiing on Sunday, Hemel Hempstead ( think flat, sticky, yellow and green dendex) Tomorrow is Masters race training, on "snow" Sunday is the regional Championships on plastic. the training on snow is really going to improve my chances on plastic isn't it? -- Chris *:-) Downhill Good, Uphill BAD! www.suffolkvikings.org.uk |

Well bless you Chris - where am I skiing tomorrow - nowhere, Sunday - nowhere, next week - no where, the rest of the year - err... no where. Count your blessings and enjoy whatever you can. -- Paul Schofield Time flies like an arrow Fruit flies like a banana |

Surely there's a dry slope somewhere near you, I know I was winging, but it is better than nothing. -- Chris *:-) Downhill Good, Uphill BAD! www.suffolkvikings.org.uk |

I admit it can be boring having such short runs and I wouldn't go so often if I wasn't teaching or racing, but I always used to go several times before I went on Holiday because otherwise you waste the first day or so. -- Chris *:-) Downhill Good, Uphill BAD! www.suffolkvikings.org.uk |

I heard the company that makes the dry ski slope material has gone bust, probably too many law suits. |
