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 :-)

The operators of a cable car that crashed at the Nevis Range ski resort near Fort William in the Highlands more than 2 years ago were fined today for health and safety breaches.
Nevis Range Development Company and one of its employees (Kevin Byrne) appeared today at Fort William Sheriff Court, the former being fined £2,000 and the later, £1,000. The operators of the cable car, which plunged into a Highlands mountainside, injuring five people, admitted failing to run the gondola system safely....Sources:

that seems a very small fine
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

One report that I read said that the fines were reduced because both the company and the employee submitted guilty pleas very early on.
