those of you who saw my pre trip post will know I went skiing for love of my child who of course dumped me on the first slope.
It was a great trip because the weather, snow and company were brilliant. I managed 2 days on piste and 4 off so I regard that as full time skiing with no let up. Didn't see child all week other than after dark.
Boots nearly caused me to vomit on the bus with pain and had to be ripped off on the snowy pavement the second I got off on 2 occasions. Bout of serious diarrhoea lasted 3 days and gave extra speed to my downhill approaches. Cable cars emptied when I came within 3 feet. Small child in our party accidentally ate a nut and had a serious anaphylactic reaction, second child got whacked in the head with a lump of ice courtesy of his friend and screamed for 30 minutes thinking he had gone blind. Ate too late every night and couldn't sleep as a result so returned home looking like crap and had to spend an hour listening to OH's blow by blow account of his week of man flu. It was all worth it but I might stay home next time or send OH and spend the week lying in bed with woman flu!
