 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi All,
Yesterday, one of our local charity shops was having a warehouse clearout. This being Sevenoaks, the charity shops have a better class of tat (though not quite to Victoria Beckham standard  ); MissusMac, being utterly unable to resist the combination of shop and potential bargain, had to be restrained from camping overnight.
Got home last night to find we had acquired a pair of skis. MissusMac says they're for her but I note that, while the points are up to her nose (which makes them a bit long for her?), they come to my chin (which makes them the right length for me?  ).
As said, they're Head Impulse 5.70's, with Tyrolia bindings. By the look of 'em, we think they've been used no more than a couple times - this being Sevenoaks, probably by someone who lashed out on the kit before realising skiing is a 'Marmite' sport. 
Both MissusMac and I are ok on-piste skiers, so did she pay £2 for  or  ?
Regards,
|

StuartMac, for £2 they're almost certainly better than anything you'd be renting...

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

StuartMac, they sound just the right length for her, actually....... so I wouldn't worry about it. You can find your own skis!!

This is "MissusMac".
"Masque":
Are you as rude and uncouth in person, or are you just an Internet Hard Man?
Stuart and I have spent nearly fourteen years taking the mickey out of one another. His post was a j-o-k-e ... you know ... ho, ho, titter, titter? He did liberally sprinkle it with smilies but, despite your innumerable posts to this Forum, you still don't understand the connection between the word "smilie" and the facial expression described by the word "smile"?

With such highly-developed manners and sense of humour, trust me, you'd have two hopes, ...
Hth.

StuartMac/MissusMac, please forgive Masque: he doesn't get out much, that is, they don't let him out much 
Masque, be nice - you'll be in the snows soon and everything will seem lovely again.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

the charity would have done a lot better to sell the skis on ebay. Friends of mine play a major role in a SCF shop and he would have sold those skis on ebay and probably made at least £100. Not so good for the OP, of course.
