I know that many of my beloved fans have been wondering that I have done as much holidaying as of old, so I just wanted to update on my latest jaunt. I spent the week of 20th-27th March skiing in Val d’Isere.
Despite the usual handicap of a distinct disinterest among the French shopkeepers in supplying equipment for the needs of their, shall we say smaller, clients, I had a lovely week.
The temperature was rising and the lower slopes unattractive, if ski-able, but a mountain of snow on the 26th/27th and a drop in temperature should have been enough to set up a decent final few weeks of the season.
