Well, we've certainly had all sorts of weather this week; mostly superb, but today we have experienced what it is like to ski in a foot of fresh snow. Not easy! Visibility was shocking and everyone had to put on their 'stiff upper lip' and get on with it. The groups went out to take [...]
Today's blog is still to come, but we thought that we'd get the photos up of the day's skiing. It's the top group that we focused on today.

Not sure about the coach company though; the driver couldn’t even find the entrance to Southampton Airport! Upon our arrival at Chambery, Mr Hudson bumped into an ex-Harrow Way student on her [...]
