Fair enough she did grow up skiing that well known resort of Flaincoe.
snowHeads are a friendly bunch.

... and that's it, short but sweet, 10 million unemployed and retired folks now know more about skiing.
And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Actually, what Chemmy said was "I'm dating Dougie Crawford" (guess where he used to ski) ... and said some positive things about Scottish skiing ... ah, the magic of romance, the Scottish Highlands, oatcakes and snogs by the fireside ...
Chemmy and Dougie. Teeth as white as Cairngorm powder!

Bode Swiller,
You know it makes sense.

I bet Dougie gets nervous every time they drive past the magnet factory.

Getting back to the JOURNALISM ... 'You and Yours' (the programme we are reviewing here) has said a lot about the Chris Reynard school skiing scandal over the years, interviewing the victims and schools etc.
A bit of the discussion today focused on the decline of school skiing, with Chemmy pointing out that her school (Surbiton High) now has a "renowned Ski Race Club" (in the school's own proud words). She said there was nothing when she first joined the school. Check it out:
Should I have corrected Chemmy Alcott when she said it was good in Scotland last winter and bad in Europe as it was actually the other way round?
And as for the number of people who ski in Scotland that the presenter read out in his introduction... the figures he refered to were skier days not skiers. The five Scottish ski area would rather like to have had 200,000 people skiing on their slopes last winter.

As I walked back out of the BBC I kind of missed the place as it was buzzing. But then I thought of where I would be in a week's time.
Heading to Alta Badia in Italy before going on to Maria Alm in Austria and then heading round to Tignes and Val Thorens. Shortly after is a long Xmas at home and then out to teach for a ski schoool in Verbier for a couple of weeks over New Year.
Stuff that in your pipe, Swiller, you bastard.

Ready Steady Cove.
James Cove investigates chalet food science at the state-of-the-art Inghams/Esprit/Total mega-kitchen-laboratory in Godalming ...
what is wrong with a good Spag Bol, exactly? Granted, maybe not every night but I wouldn't turn my nose up at one in a catered chalet.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

The 'spag' bit is hard to get wrong but the 'bol' part can have ingredients that range from cat food in a tomato and basil sauce, right through to finest Aberdeen Angus. Done well it's great but most often the chalet staff must be tempted to buy cheapo mince and they ain't got a clue about seasoning. It's all very well the French banning ski hosts but some of the bigger crimes are in the kitchen.
