Andy, I think that you will find that there are young sounding fellows on J2, that you might have the age edge on!

Not that age matters a fig. When it comes to skiing, age can be a good advantage.

Rossy, I may be the only J2 rear entry harpist. But then, you might consider that on most days, I ski 60~80km, and due to the condition of my knee, I am hitting the Ibruprofen by mid-day. At boot removal time, my knee is swollen to a football lookalike. You have no idea how grateful I am to be able to gently remove my my foot from my rear exiting boot.
