Whilst reading the newspaper this morning at breakfast, I came across an article on page 34 of the Daily Express about a reporter who went skiing to get fit, instead of joining a gym. The reporter obviously chose our favourite resort of Rauris, otherwise why would I be mentioning it here. Just thought I would share that with you, so if you read the Express or get a chance to flick to page 34 whilst at the news stand, you can have a read.

I don't know how many people have a PC out there and are going to be upgrading to Windows Vista in the near future, but if you are, have a look at these first.



Even if you hate Macs, if these don't make you at least smile, there's something wrong.

Well what a week the ski gang had this year, I think we must have been sponsored by Jackass! First day, Tania is stretchered off the hill, Gary’s son and nephew both break their arms ending up in plaster and an awful vomiting bug flattens half of Rauris. Wednesday Karen freaks out Harry’s group again with high speed crash, hurting already painful knees, Gen soldiers on through the week with painful back due to dodgy discs and on Friday, when everyone was back on skis, Alex recovered from her tummy bug, gets wiped out by a German skier and ends up with concussion and an egghead. Apart from that, a great week was had by all! :) :) :)

A note to ski gang members who usually go out with us (you know who you are). Don't book up yet, as Nigel will receive inside information as to the best week for next year due to Austrian school holiday reshuffles ;-)

See the forum for details (will show up in the members only forum), as and when we have them.

Also, the 2007 gallery pages have been updated with a new style which has comments under the pics.

Just a quick note to say that we have posted some of our images to the gallery section of the website. Check out the "various" page for images of Tania being carted off down the mountain after her accident on Sunday 28th.

Please feel free to send us some of your pictures or movies for inclusion on the website. Just send us an email by using the "email the gang" link at the bottom of the page.
