So, it really wasn’t my fault.  Blame it on an earthquake! Somehow we hit the mountain without realizing the camera had no memory card in it. Yeah, yeah I know. Mr forgetfull. Anyhows, we have had a magic day. Beautiful day for skiing then socializing at the local tonight. Providing I don’t have another blonde moment, we’ll have photos tomorrow 😆

Hi everyone!

It has taken us a couple of days to get organised but finally we are up & running. We also now have a few photos to get started with.

We had a good flight over, a bit ahead of time actually. We finally, after all these years, got a very new hire car, bonus!

We hit the slopes yesterday and had a really good day but it isn’t nicknamed “Concrete Peak” for nothing. I got brought back to reality with a thud. Time for a helmet maybe? That put an end to my skiing for the day. Roger had a good day, he came off a couple of times but he hit soft stuff, mongrel!

We compensated byt taking heaps of Scottish medicine, aka Johnny Walker Black. The topped it off with a stroll up the road to the local pub & had a feed. Rolled back down the hill home ( after going the wrong way for a bit ) and crashed. Woke up so sore & bruised this morning it wasn’t funny. Still, we got the new video camera out & did some footage which worked really well. Will edit & upload maybe tomorrow. Bit of a learning curve.

Had a very icy drive up to the Peak this morning, a few people came to grief on the road, plus it was a very foggy start even up on the mountain. Cleared to come extent up top but down here in the valley the fog persisted almost all day & it will be a cold night tonight. Our thermometer isn’t here so we’ll have to get a new one.

All in all, it has been a good couple of days so we wait to see what tomorrow brings!

Yep, as the name implies when you hit the deck it’s like concrete 😞

Hi everyone.  Just a quick early afternoon update. Bit battered & bruised. Yesterday took its toll and we were a bit wobbly this morning. About to dose up on deep heat & some scotch and have a snooze.  Will upload pikkies & a proper update tonight!
