Spent most of the time skiing in Avoriaz as apposed to Morzine, simply because the snow was better and our lift passes covered the whole surrounding area, including some runs in Switzerland, which was a bonus!

All in all it was money well spent, I'm on the lookout for a pair of boots now, and some skis. I have blades, but I prefer skiing on normal skis.

I spent quite a bit of time off-piste this holiday, which is something which is fairly new to me, but I really enjoyed that too.

We ended the holiday on pretty steep black which none of us had wanted to tackle at the beginning in case we broke a leg and ruined our hol! haha.

Regards,

James.

Stop Press re: Breakfast Club.
It was advertised as breakfast and car washing again in the Lancs Telegraph motoring section on Friday, with a picture of yours truly, so it looks like the car washing posse are back on duty.

I'm sure there's a ready supply of coffee and buns there. It may be worth posting if you are going to see who else might turn up. Most people seem to go between 9 and 10:30, they have plenty of nice MINI's in at the moment, especially their PW JCW MCS demonstrator that they're selling, if you've a spare £26k!
Maybe see you there.

Warm welcome to the new members.

Stevemac · Jan 9th, 2008, 07:46 AM

I think its time we arranged our day out around the Trough of Bowland and just to dip a few dates into the water, would you let me know if you cannot do any of the following dates. Obviously we will pick the best day from your replies.....

Sun Feb 17th
Sun March 2nd,
9th
or 16th

As I dont want to be too close to Saturday 5th April which is the Lancashire Lanes/ Cumbria run, I'm thinking sooner rather than later than Shamsters run.

lucachiarelli · Jan 9th, 2008, 09:13 AM

Im in for the run. Im fine with any of those dates

andyj · Jan 9th, 2008, 05:44 PM

MINI-Bob · Jan 9th, 2008, 09:01 PM

The 9th March is definitely out for me. Think the other dates are ok for now.

Bob

R99 · Jan 9th, 2008, 09:22 PM

Sundays could be difficult for me - I work them while I'm at Uni.

Once a day is confirmed though I'll see if I can get the day off!

Right Guys we're going for Sunday 16th March, details to follow shortly....

R99 · Jan 10th, 2008, 06:12 PM

Ok, plenty of time then for me to try and convince work to let me have the day off.
