Doesn’t look very snowy…Just cold.

Come in winter, I assure you there will be more snow than dandruff in Dutchy’s hair 😉

If we hear of someone driving down a motorway on the wrong side then we shall think of you… Wha are you again?;)
Maybe I shall join you in that hospital ward – depending on how soon Anna can get my legs broken (I mean get me skiing, but the result still stands!)…

What am I like?
I hope to give the impression of a knowledgeable, thoroughly nice chap who has lived in Sweden for perhaps too long!
However that’s for others to judge.
In reality I am slightly crazy, much-travelled old geezer who is seeking to settle down in semi-retirement as close to Duxford as possible, therefore I shall be in the area from 5-8 July. You are hereby warned, I shall be traversing those quiet country lanes in a rented car, and since I have been driving on the wrong side of the road for 30 years, may easily forget where I am! Take cover, folks!
We will keep a sharp eye out for you 😉 😉 😀 😀 Anna 😉

Why does the Goatboy drag me into everything, I was just minding my own business.
Now Skiing, can anyone explain what the reasoning behind it is. Why strap two planks to your feet, and throw yourself off the side of a mountain, just to repeat the process?

Aha, my first (and last) ski lesson was on the black polluted snow of Zakopane in Poland 25 years ago – the slope seemed to end at Warsaw (about 200 miles away) so I sat down to stop before I sailed off over the edge of the apparently vertical drop and zoomed too far. Never did learn to point them together without the skis crossing over and plaiting my legs! Couldn’t walk for 2 days afterwards, and to make matters worse the instructor spoke only Polish and French, whilst I spoke only English and Swedish!
Stuck to cricket after that, eventually becoming silly mid-on in the Monte Carlo Cricket team (MCC geddit!).
I swear that it’s all true and not a product of my fevered imagination!
What are you like 😀 😀 Anna 😀

If you guys have the money, you two can come down to where i live. It’s usually winter most of the time and there’s lots of hills. It’s just north of where our very own Viper01, aka Matt Damon jr, lives! Oh yes, Norwegian or Russian is necessary unless you need an interpreter like your very own, Burger King.

I think he’s already descended the slippery slope.
On my backside…;)

Forget the slopes – drag him into a chalet and shag him to withing an inch of his life for two weeks.
EN830 would.

Isola 2000 near Nice is I believe a good place for beginners and not too expensive.
