Forecasting snow?...

It's less than a week now and I'm off skiing. In something of an impulse purchase I took over Anders' booking to go down to France and ski with Lena and Annette. So, when I'm not dancing I'm trying to work out what I need. Ten years since I went downhill skiing. You kind of forget...

Which I why it was good today to get in a couple of hours on the ski slope in Sollentuna. With my neighbour Karin for company I spent a happy couple of hours being dragged up the slope and then skiing down. We could have gone to Bruket - which I can see from my window - but the slope there is short and steep and they don't hire out equipment. Horses for courses...

I was pleased to find I'd not completely forgotten everything.. and two hours was enough to get a taste for trying the real thing. Next week - in Serre Chevalier!

Looks like I might need to pack a good sweater :-)
