Its Close to Ski O'Clock

The countdown has begun... ooh yes in 3 days I will be close, if not on the white stuff already.  It really doesn't seem a year ago that I had this feeling, but it is and I am like a child in a sweetshop waiting for the paper bag to be handed over.


I wait for this time of year and I wish my life away getting back to it...sad but I wish I had realised how much I love skiing, when I was younger.  


For sure the first thing I would do if I won the lottery (okay I have to play it first) would be to buy that place in the French Alpes.  Until then I will have to make do with skiing 1-3 times each year and wishing I could be there more.  Maybe one season we will be there for all of it, hopefully this will happen before the knees give in.  I know the mind will still be there, on the slopes touching the white stuff, even when everything else gives up.


Time for a slope break!
