Anyone got snow ??

Lucky HA!

Even the dry ski slope at Sheffield telephoned today to say they had cancelled our lessonsfor the kids

Irony on cancelling ski club due to snow !!! :mrgreen:

I have just got back from the ski village in sheffield and have been there since it opened at 2pm, it was brillant. It was even better last night when the main dendex slope was just like a piste but the freestyle side was really good today as the snow provided more turning grip than the usual snowdex.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I had fifteen kids all moaning at me they telephoned school at 9.30 said no, we go every tuesday 5pm lesson, well they ski and i sat in bar with a latte and apple pie for an hour :(

i refuse to break ankle in sheffield and not get to austria in 31 days time. is dry slope much different to real snow

The apple pie is good! :lol:

The dry slope is good for people to learn the basics on or to refresh themselves before a holiday but after that, if you're not racing or doing the freestyle, it can get repetitive. The dryslope is so much slower and less responsive than the snow, but the kids seem to love it.

ggggggrrrrrr im mad now,
yip the little darlings love it and i do enjoy apple pie goign to have to cut it out or i need 2 seats on plane

were those pics tonight?

in a way i didn't fancy driving mini bus with them all specially getting up that hill bit scarey even without the snow.

They were from last night.
We ditched the car at the bottom of the hill and walked up. Didnt think it was worth it after a 4x4 audi was coming down sideways!

I'm not surprised, people in the UK place too much reliance on 4WD in snow. It seems every news report on the TV recently has been saying that the road is closed apart from 4WD. Some sort of maths problem I think :D 2 x no traction is just the same as 4 x no traction :D
