Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Just heard on Radio Scotland that Tiso's have been bought over by JJB Sports, owners of Millets and Blacks. The Tiso's shops will be kept but the Alpine Bikes and Blues businesses will be closed. Bit sad this as Blues was for many years just about the only ski shop in Edinburgh. I got my current skis there and quite a few other bits and bobs over the years.
Most of the stuff they carried is available in other Scottish retailers but I think anyone looking for Fischer skis or boots might struggle to find them.

Update - it's JD Sport, not JJB. And although I'm sure Radio Scotland said they'd shut down Alpine and Blues the BBC website says they're going to be kept and expanded. So maybe it's good news. I was in Blues a couple of weeks ago and they had almost no new season stock. If they're getting a cash injection then maybe that will change.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Looks a good move for tiso but it'll be interesting to see the effect on the edinburgh shop once craigdon open up near to hillend.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.
