Well, it seemed like a good idea yesterday, so why not do it again?

After the success of yesterday’s day off, we (Sandy, Louis and I) found ourselves with a free afternoon….so it seemed rude not to.

So, with the impressive young Jo in tow, we headed off into a few inches of fresh, with more forecast for tonight…

Here are a few glimpses of the afternoon (through the cloud…).

Taking it easy on our day off…

After our busy Christmas and New Year, I spent a boring afternoon crusing round the off piste with ES instructors Sandy and Louis (the slightly hippyish one who plays the upsettingly good giggs in the T-bar).

It really was rather dull…

…Louis investigating the Rock Garden at Lac des Vaux.

…guess which one of these two accomplished skiers has just fallen over (Hint: for a change it wasn’t Sandy…)

…Louis drops off again.

…the lads pretending to be catalogue models…

…Louis look for something soft to land on. His choice of rocks was controversial…

…evidence that snow is definately better than rocks…

…and the perfect end to a perfect day (well, apart from the Villa result in the FA Cup…)
