@ElzP, Thank you! Give my regards to the slopes of Pila if you’re up there today. It looked like the sun was finally coming out & the miserable weather clearing when I left this morning.

@Chuckles3, the lengths some people go to get their husbands to do the clothes washing
Glad you are back in uk and all is stable

@Chuckles3, good to hear you are in sound hands and on the mend. Fingers crossed you will be fit and eager for next year.
At least you did get to ski. Our daughter (she is a medical student) reported last night on a patient in fracture clinic yesterday - had broken their leg tripping down the stairs from the gondola station without even doing a single run.
We men have a hard time with washing machines. I have not been allowed anywhere near ours since an unfortunate incident decades ago when some of my (now) wife's underwear emerged a subtle shade of grey.

OK I was gonna let it go but I can't: I'm a guy, and--just sayin'-- I'll match my laundry skills with anybody's. I just bought new machines, and soon I'll show my wife how to use them. I even rule on the road, check it out

Do you wash them in the bog and then rinse in the bidet like some kind of sanitary twin-tub?! This is next level domestic wizardry.

@Scooter in Seattle, That’s an incredibly impressive display of pant washing. I’ll make sure MrChuckles3 takes note for our next trip away.

@j b, Oh dear, that poor person. At least I had 3 & a bit cracking days first. And thanks, still feeling unsure about next season but there’s plenty of time to consider what to do.
As for washing catastrophes, MrChuckles3 was banned some years ago after deciding to help by tumble drying all my lovely & very expensive bras & knickers. Needless to say, it didn’t turn out well & after paying to replace them all, he never did it again.

@Chuckles3, similar happened to my mum, when we went on the SFaB. We got to the hotel early but the room wasn't ready... had been contemplating getting an extra day lift pass and going out for a ski that day. But as we didnt have access to the room, left baggage in their storage room and went off to get food supplies in. We had gone on ahead with our shopping and our girls leaving my parents arguing over what they wanted to buy. Next thing I know i get a text from Mum saying room was ready but she had hurt her ankle. We went on into our room, next text was a message a friend saying they just saw my mum being loaded into an ambulance.
The was looked packed snow you came out of from shop was hollow underneath and now being mid April, starting to melt gave way under mum creating a deep hole. She broke her ankle in 3 places before even checking in!
It would have been much saver if we had gone off skiing.

The last post from me before I put this one to bed & this whole saga behind me.
I’m home! Got transport back at 8 last night. Just about managed the stairs - so much harder going up than down & sat on the bed with MrChuckles3 drinking red wine & eating peanuts until midnight. Definitely no sleeping tablet or morphine required.
Had the best nights sleep I’ve had in weeks & am looking forward to a restful day upstairs today after an awful lot of physio/physical exertion yesterday.
Have my first review in 4 weeks when I may be allowed to start weight bearing on my injured side so keeping fingers crossed it all goes to plan!
Look after yourselves peeps

@Hurtle, Will do. They’ve now added a fractured sacrum to the pelvis so it makes sense why my ar@e has been so sore since my accident.
I’ve had to relent & so am getting a rental stairlift fitted tomorrow (who knew they were a thing) & wheelchair delivery imminent.
Rubbing salt in to the wounds, keep getting snow forecast updates into my inbox

@Chuckles3, Glad your home safe and sound. Hoping your bones mend well, your transition to letrozole goes ok, and that your back on the slopes next year. Salutes and beers for MrChuckles too.

Very true. So much so we have a whole sub forum dedicated to it
https://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewforum.php?f=48
Spent more time in there than I would have liked but c'est la vie

@thecramps, @pam w, Cheers. It’s fair to say that MrChuckles3’s shoulders have visibly dropped since my return home & he is sleeping very much more soundly this week

@DrLawn, Thank you! I’m reserving judgement on next season at the moment. It’s fair to say neither of us are gagging to start planning another trip yet.
