ACTUAL DATE: 17th feb. got up and had breaky downstairs. Went over to check out the meeting point for the lessons and see Barney and Nichol off for their day of skiing. Pretty good lesson, a really good instructor but I would've rather been in the middle of the group instead of the top - also should have done lesson yesterday; oh well! Things to remember... When skiing stand as if someone has punched you in the stomach, then pretend that you are holding a pumpkin in front of you. When turning all your weight is on the outside foot and when removing ski boots the locks are tough and may bite, ask my thumb!! Got changed and headed to the blacks bar for some more mulled wine and 'fries' very busy! Then we hung out for a while and got our luggage and headed over to the Carlton lodge where mikey works and got picked up- thanks mikey. Headed home and got the full run down. Did some washing, bought some supplies, watched a movie and went to bed, Nichol was out cold in 2 seconds flat!!
