 Poster: A snowHead
|
Prince Charles has been sporting a lovely fartbag while skiing in Klosters this week. Is this just the latest step in his passion for recycling and saving the planet? We don't think so... It's clear to us that he's a discreet reader of snowHeads and has recognised the innevitable power of the lard.
If you're reading CW, do feel free to pop into l'Oxalys during the EoSB for a quick Jaegermeister with your new crew:  We promise not to make you share a room with Kramer

Rather admire him for not being a fashion slave, really.

It took years to convince him to junk his rear entry boots.

Should he not be on those fancy chrome and gold skis all the Ruskies are wearing this season?

I should hope so. I'd be alarmed to think that there was some sort of continuum of Prince Charles-ness going on out there.

Disappointed to see him carrying X screams. Last brand I remember noting on him were Dynamic VR27.
He really should have all his gear made by faithful old retainers somewhere in St James.
Ski suit should be made by a Savile Row tailor who does all the huntin,shootin,fishin gear.
Leather boots, on his own special last, made by the ski boot specialist at Lobb.
None of this plastic rubbish that the proles ski with...... and no labels either.

Is it true that HRH has a servant known as Scrotum because he is a wrinkled retainer?

"front bottom" is usually prefixed by the word "ladies" on this site....

Returning to Wengen from Murren on the train, we were accompanied by a gent in tweed plus-fours. I regret to say his ski boots were bang up to date, though.

Dypcdiver, OMG he really must have got them back out of the bin, or been purchasing on eBay. He was moaning a few years back that his new 4 buckle boot wasn't as comfortable as his old rear entrys.......

Every royal story has some vicious rumour of rear entry in it

el Hen, I've had an email concerning the photo at the top of the thread, upon which this thread is based.
Incidentally, the photo was apparently taken in 2006, not (as implied, no doubt inadvertently) on Prince Charles's current trip.
I'm sorry to ask this question, but was that photo obtained with the permission of the copyright holder?
The writing style of the news item seems to be completely out of character with your normal style, and it includes the slightly vulgar noun 'fartbag'. I'm genuinely sorry to ask this, but was that item really your own writing?

Just returned from Mammoth - I believe the terminology over in the states for the psychodelic all in ones and rear entry boots is "Gayper Gear" - nice!
Just tried bidding on ebay for one such hideous outfits from 1970s Nevica as a joke birthday present for best mate and it went for £50!! These people can't be serious??!

Thanks holidaylover - I am a bit gutted I didn't see this site sooner as I work freelance and up until 2 weeks ago I hadn't booked any work in for myself (in case I came back from states injured!) so could have joined you all at EoSB - but now I have full diary and can't cancel

FAQ
Apart from the (unnecessary?) delicacy of the censoring, why "back bottom"? Has anyone ever seen a front bottom?
