Thanks for thinkin of me - got a text from Legs via you. I need to come home from CBR, so I'll look for CBR fares. Hard - I am always teaching between 12 and 1 - I need a sickie!

Awesome Xena :) My lips are zipped ;)

11-03-2010, 09:19 AM
Legs it's usually pretty hard for teachers to get "days off" during term time. Unless of course they live in a ski town and are doing a summer overseas ski holiday...then it's pretty much expected ;)
We have to have a medical certificate if it backs on to a public hol - which the Fri is on the GC.
Might be able to rustle up a Dr for you if you need it X.
Should I, shouldn't I? Should I, shouldn't I? Should I, shouldn't I bring my twins as the best birthday present ever? Their 14th birthday is on the Tues 31st? They're better skiers/boarders than me anyway, so they wouldn't hold me back (they know Perisher, so could ski without me anyway) and they'd stay at the unit at night by themselves, so I could still party - the only drawback would be tripling my costs.
Or maybe just Princess BF, mother and daughter thing.
Boardingbuny
13-03-2010, 06:52 PM
Why would it triple costs?

13-03-2010, 06:56 PM

Atleast I gave you something to giggle about..
SO,Tell me fireplace, here or in Jindy? We have one being given to us...
SnoWhite
14-03-2010, 12:20 PM
BB, as much as a fireplace is fantastic down here, I think you should keep it for up there. If you put a fireplace down here it's just one more thing to clean up, you have to organise and store wood and have the flue cleaned every so often. It's one thing when it's for your own use, but another thing altogether with tennants. And I'm not really sure where you'd put it anyway!
Boardingbuny
14-03-2010, 03:32 PM
My thoughts too SW ! Plus someone is likely to steal my firewood :)
If I was there I would just put it back where the old oil heater used to be as the flue is still in place.
We might use it as an outside thing as our chiminea cracked :)
I am also working on a possibl weekend fly in /fly out..............which slide do I try to make it to????
Legolas

Can’t say I’m too keen on any of the “Valleys” (apart from Sun), but hey I’m up for anything. Just had the old skis waxed and edged (first time in 2 years:) so should be nice and fast for the slide:ski:.
Lunch at Guthega?
And with Little Swede giving me the flick going climbing instead, I can hit the Pubs both nights960

IAB, I had this discussion with a colleague yesterday in fact :giggle: I'm up for it, including Smigs!
Warrior Prince and Princess are up for that - but I am slower than you lot - maybe you just better take him and I'll play somewhere - know any good places to hide and play??:unsure:

Xena, I am not fast either, if we start nice and early we should have plenty of time.

We might have to split into pairs and see who can do it the quickest. ;)

Hi folks
If the snow is as good as it's supposed to be you can count me out of a lift to lift, even if it's half as good, it'll be the 2nd and last weekend i'll have skied this year and I want to make the most of it ie skiing as much as possible, though not over the whole resort. will pick 1 or 2 spots and spend all day there most likely.

If the snow is as good as it's supposed to be you can count me out of a lift to lift, even if it's half as good, it'll be the 2nd and last weekend i'll have skied this year and I want to make the most of it ie skiing as much as possible, though not over the whole resort. will pick 1 or 2 spots and spend all day there most likely.
This goes without saying. No races on a powder day (no friends either so I will catch you all at the pub in the evening). ;)

Anyone want to ski some pitch at Thredders on Sat :D
I have no preference for either resort mind you, but with snow like this I think Thredders will provide some far better skiing options. NFORLOAPD!!! (No friends or resort loyalty on a powder day!!) :D
If I didn't have a season pass I would spend the day trying to catch up to you Deere San at thredders.

Depends on what time I get to leave Sydney.
That is dependent on whether the +1 gets her work finished and comes or is not likely to get finished and will have to stay home to finish it.

Of course....and it is a much safer bet to Season Pas at PB I reckon too!

Not talking about a powder day, this particular weekend I don't care what the snow is like it's a no friends day except catch up in the arvo or lunch if it works with where we're skiing.

Prolly not Swede, will be arriving around 9 or 10 then will have to get my ski hire done before hitting the sack at a reasonable hour so I'm ready for a BIG day skiing on Saturday.
But on Saturday night - GAME ON !!!

Most of the instructors were drinking (some heavily) the last time I did the flare run. I'm sure we can arrange a lift for you back to town. ;)

Now that would be going against the ARC wouldn't it Bear ;)
I'm not sure the ARC applies to skiing down a slope in the dark holding a lit flare in each hand.

Something different JD, there's bits of PB I haven't seen for a few years because of bad weather or not enough snow.
Now, be quiet and drink your Peroni.

well it's good to see you are regularly true to your faith Swede!
Maaaan you lot are going to have a good weekend.
Just made Mr Legs feel guilty as a catholic school boy for making me pull out (well...he didn't make me...he just made me feel guilty...actually, that probably wasn't him either...it was the catholic upbringing)...
so much so that he just said "it's not too late if you REALLY want to go..."

Great day Saturday, snow was superb, skies were blue, my cheeks are sore from smiling at how good a time I had on snow :)
Great to catch up with everyone in one spot later on, sorry we missed you today, we were shattered.
I didn't think I'd ever hear a certain person say "I need a cup of tea, are you going home now?" :big_laugh: CORE!
