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 :-)

Chemmy's Dumpster Challenge Completed!

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Saw the following on twitter this afternoon:



So I thought I would respond, because I was sitting around sneezing and not achieving anything useful, also I live close to Salford Quays.

Obviously a person of her stature would have someone to do this at her beck and call, from the BBC or Media City ...... but i got this reply












She had been staying in a flat at Salford Quays while covering the Winter Olympics and had left some personal stuff when she moved out. My mission would be to try to find some very important items that had been put in a bin bag.

My chance to be Bin Diver to the Stars! Off in the Hoobmobile with @astrol, by now I had phone contact with Chemmy and we were receiving directions and door codes from the four time olympian herself who sounds just as charming in real life.

Clue number one, the most likely location of the bag would be.......in the bin store, down the main corridor, past the lift and on the right according to the Ski Sunday presenter. Here we were greeted by a room containing twelve of the largest US style dumpsters all overflowing with black bin bags.

At this point contact with Chemmy was lost as she had an important meeting (probably with the IOC, Claire Balding or other royalty) so contact was made with her PA who took over directions.

The suspect bins were identified and we started a methodical search, as we got deep into the sixth bin @astrol found a bag that fitted the description and an exchange of photos confirmed we had struck gold (unlike Team GB)

Cheers all round for a sucessful mission.

We are now available for other Mission Impossible type tasks.

Does anyone else have any tails of Celebrity ski rubbish rummaging or is this a first for Snowheads

Having had the ‘pleasure’ of sitting next to Mr Bell & a group of hangers on a couple of years ago one night in a hotel in Pila, I’d definitely be giving it a pass rolling eyes

@Seahoob, sounds like an interesting way to pass the time, is this the first celebrity bin diving you've done or are you a pro?

Just wish I knew sooner that you offered a lost and found service, could have come in handy.

Does this mean you tore open the bin bags in five other dumpsters belonging to other apartment dwellers before finding it? I can see why Chemmys PA would have turned down this exciting assignment!

Find anything else interesting?

@ster, The plan was a gental prod / squeeze of each bag to see if they felt like clothing. Luckily there was an empty bin so we adopted a prod, squeeze and hurl into the next bin routine.
The appartments were in a posh bit of Salford ( Toofy Grin ), so the quality of the bin bags was high. I only suffered one slight bag failure resulting in a light shower of coffee grounds, astrol appeared to be teflon coated.

No, but it would be a good location for bin diving, I think the BBC use the place for their staff, you may get to spot some celebraties. I can let you have the address and door code for a small fee.

@Richard_Sideways, Client dumpster confidentiality violations prohibit any discussion of the topic.

I feel proud that I have helped improve relationships between Snowheads and the Hon President of Ski Club of GB. She's a better ambassador then Gerry/@Hamilton Academical IMHO.
