Mantyhose back in order

March 23, 2012

Sorry about yesterday’s quite frankly fraught – but honest -blog. It’s all lovely again and I’ve managed to sort my mantyhose out so I’m generally less ruffled – what a poof, get her. The Sun is shining, we had 12oC at the top of Cucumelle, the hard ice of Monetier has softened considerably and the [...]

March 23, 2012

That said, when you’re here [...]

Not a great day for Serre Chevalier

March 22, 2012

It’s all wrong. Went up as the blue looked promising, took my fatter skis, as it has been a bit warm and soft the past few days  – I have had a few days off as I took a chair to the back of the knee, which knackered my calf, so was all set to [...]

Alpe D’Huez review

March 21, 2012

The nice thing about getting a Serre Chevalier ski season pass is that it includes a fair few days chucked in for free in nearby stations. There is Puy St Vincent, Galaxy, which takes in Montgeneve in France over the border into Oulx in Italy and offers some 400km of pistes and Alpe D’Huez. This [...]

What’s white and 12 inches?

March 19, 2012

I thought the answer was nothing, but that’s the depth of the new snow that fell last night in Serre Chevalier. There was a horrible moment when it started to rain – how much of that is going to be snow up the hill? was the question – all of it was the answer – [...]
