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 Daily Telegraph Sports Section contains a survey of attitudes and participation in sports. Its a representative sample and it reports the following.
Most popular sport is footie with 72% expressing an interest but 62% actually ever participating
However, skiing clocks in at 13% for interest, 1% for it being their most interesting sport and 14% for actual participation. A rather healthy interest to participation ratio, me thinks
These surveys tend to only ask adults and the representativness is based on the adults populations. Adults are 80% of the 60m people in the country. So 13% of themis about 6.24m people who have skied or slide.
THat's the size of the market.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

According to tjose statistice, 1% more people are participating than are interested. - This explains why Mrs. Acacia has to be coerced into accompanying me.

Indeed, the forced-to-ski brigade make there mark!
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

They either interviewed a very biased sample or a lot of liers(maybe I should say misguided or confused)
