It's better than that. My son is only seven and before today had only been on very basic nursery slopes of around 100-150 metres. He was really nervous on the first run (Ciste Fairway), but after a little more coaching he was really getting to grips with linked stem turns.

By the end of the afternoon he was almost ready for an easy blue run - I was really proud!
This week I aaaaarv been mostly........ skiing

Hi Snow Time,
I'm glad to hear your son is doing so well. In my experience (with my daughter), once they get over the basic fear of ski-ing, they overtake their parents in no time. I'd guess that after one week's ski holiday, possibly 2 depending on how good you are, he'll be saying 'Hurry up Dad - what are you doing!'.

Have fun ski-ing!

Ian,
I've had my breakfast - muesli, same every day, even when I ski. I try to stay fit and slim, but it's getting harder as I get older.

I don't know which supermarket you work for, but I will be going into Tesco later with my daughter to buy special mother's day food for her to cook me a meal tonight. Flowers are a waste of money, we have a huge garden here, but food I like, and my daughter cooks (and skis) better than me, at age 15.

It would be very unprofessional of me to talk about my employer on this forum as I don't really think they would appreciate it, but all I can say is that you have made a very good choice of place to do your mothers day shopping :thumbup:
Beware too much sugar in Muesli, bran is the way forward, but there are side affects :oops:

I've just realised something - I've gone and done it again!

I've assumed Snow Time is male, but they might be female. Sorry Snow Time, are you male or female? I seem to continually make mistakes over this.
