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 :-)

@queenie pretty please,

Pistenbully - other makes are available. In fact I haven't seen one of these for years
Corduroy - lkewise , it has been some time since I wore corduroy. It has been sometime since I've seen any
Bubble lift - lots of confusion indeed
Salopettes - OK for men, but ladies find the shoulder straps a bit of a pain when visiting the toilet. Hence the more common wearing of ski trousers
@holidayloverxx,
Ski pants - what I do after a particularly hard run and desperate to grasp those few molecules of oxygen at altitude. I like it
Apres - after what those few molecules of oxygen have at eleast reached the lungs
Poles to be raced around
@Hurtle,
Dolomites indeed. I hate the term Dollies. It has so many other meanings

Just spotted this - and it's made me realise that I haven't a clue what makes of piste basher there are these days. Once upon a time I did notice that sort of thing. Clearly, I now don't.

yard sale is a winner

"slough (sluff?) management" - generally a tad ironically

"chubby air" - moderate middle-aged version of fat air

"character building" - nasty off piste conditions

"fiddle-arsing" - all the messing about you do to get in and out of a slightly inaccessible off piste line

"pop"

"proper lunch"
