Barbados? Excellent. We can go shark diving and use Michael Winner as bait.

I should have mentioned my sweaty ‘helmet’ hair from the helmet they hired me as it would make me sooo much more confident (not) and in fact only highlighted my great big double chin as they obviously found me a tight childs helmet – just to make it all the more funny. I also borrowed pole dancing ‘I haven’t been for 5 years but in a previous life was a snow boarding British champion’ old ski’s – and spend most mornings insisting they came up to my forhead NOT MY NOSE and therefore my inability to turn through the un-bashed piste and fall over at every bump was due to the skis and not my technique. In between shouting at my husband ‘if this cliff is not covered in ice, what is this then??’ as I navigated my way down by sliding on my bottom ski – only to be told by him that he struggled to understand my distress as apparently it was a blue. (although they informed me when I slid down the mountain ski-less with said too tight jacket and way too tight trousers unflatteringly exposing too tight fleece and daughters thermals – that it was a cheeky black???) Blue, Red, Black – aparently they are just colours – NOT WHEN YOU CAN’T SKI! At the end of the holiday everyone was enthusiastically dicussing next year’s venue – bloody Barbados for me, cocktails and a trashy book, and maybe a little water arobics session in the pool. Please come with me L???

All that skiing would have been a great work out for your female friend! I know it kills after a day or two of solid skiing but you feel great afterward and your so much strong that you can ski better and longer.

Really funny! Made me smile. Your female friend….I’ve had similar experiences..tantrums at the top of mountains refusing to budge wondering what the hell i am doing this for. Not daring to have a drop of alcohol whilst skiing etc..
I do like it as well at times. ;0)
Your male friend- oooo- no thanks, sounds very scary. Apart from the dancing on the tables bit!

Oh god I just about wet myself reading the female version.

If she had been in front of me I would have wanted to go and give her a big fat hug, but unable to actually do thanks to only being able to stagger a few inches with my legs tightly crossed, giggling like mad, in what might come across as a not very compassionate way.

I’m streaming.

Tell that woman to blog.

I see so much of your female friend in my approach to skiing!

Hilarious, when you are not being subjected to it!
