On Saturday we were in a ski shop in Norwich having Mrs W's feet measured for a new pair of ski boots ... there is nothing wrong with her others ..... A couple in there 30's sat down next to us you know the type talks with a plum no control over the kids all wearing their ski jackets, need I say more. And spent £130 on skis, £95 on ski boots a ski bag & boot bag of which I didn't catch the price but must have been another £40 all for a what looked like a 9 year old.
So £265 spent on gear which will only last for one weeks ski hols, well you know how quickly kids grow. :shock:

They've clearly got the money to throw away from what you describe. At least it keeps the ski industry afloat.
