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 :-)

Why are the Birts such bad skiers?

I get the island part, but is the noticeable lack of peripheral vision and general dorkiness genetic or environmental?

Oh Slim. Play nice now LOL. I whole heartedly disagree with you. I've met many, and I do mean many Brits who are very good skiers/riders.

Have you ever skied with a group from New Jersey. Now that is lack of peripheral vision. LOL wink

It could be genetic, maybe they are related to President Bush in some way.

I wondered that, interesting everyone assumed it was a Brit... the Britons were the inhabitants of the British Islands up to circa 500AD I think.

I thought the thread was a nasty attack on John Birt and his family. It seemed like an odd idea for a thread.

During the Roman warming then - not surprising they weren't very good skiers. Probably too busy tending the vines on Cairngorm. Laughing

hmmm, I'll bite, after my own fashion:

Why does the average American only have a vocabulary of 800 words ?
Why for a country build on immigrants, why are Americans so incredibly insular ?
Why can't they spell ?
Why do they stick commas before the word 'but' ?
Why can't they just shoot the enemy ?
Why can't Americans elect someone who can walk and talk at the same time or just string a sentence together that makes sense ?
Why can't Americans ski anything but 'nice' powder ?
Why are Americans so fat ?
Why have 78% of Americans never been abroad ?
Why haven't they got any big ski resorts ?
Why is the best skiing in N. America in Canada ?

Have you looked at the linguistic standard on this forum recently?

Like John Prescott, you mean?

no .. not suggesting that Mr Prescott was coherent. I was suggesting that your analysis of the US citizens' diet , manners and linguistics was somewhat dated.

I also wondered who the "Birts" were. I mean, there is the one out of Sesame Street I suppose (albeit spelt "Burt"), he is probably not a very good skier since he is a puppet an' all. rolling eyes Is the OP a vendetta against anyone who might be called "Birt" "Bert" or "Burt"? Laughing

As an American. I find this thread hysterical. Now if you will excuse me I'm going to increase my vocabulary to 801 words, and floss my teeth. NehNeh

I must say however after spending time with the Royal Marines that your attempts at Yankee bashing humor is lame in comparison to what the Brit Jarheads used to come up with. Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

I'll leave you with this thought. Thank God Diana was Harry and William's mother. Otherwise the Monarchy would have been stuck with another ugly dude with big ears as your future King. wink
