LES GETS Days

We had a fantastic time at Les Gets in the French Alps !

Lovely snow covered bush.

Me in the gorgeous soft snow on the edge of one of the ski runs.

Joe, John and me with our (slightly flirty and alarmingly hairy-eared) ski instructor Laurent.

Joe and John on a ski lift.

LES GETS Nights

The beers went down a little too easily after skiing !

I think this is the YMCA.

Elaine and Clare having a dance.

Kareoke ! (of sorts)

We found a couple of sleds in the garage at the chalet and much fun was had!
(Joe discovered that attempting to slide down the hill on his belly was less effective than using a sled... and infinitely more painful!)

Seb and David... post sled crash.

LONDON Zoo

I had been dying to visit London Zoo for ages to see this penguin pool...
Irritatingly there weren't any penguins in it. Just two zoo keepers and some mongooses (mongeese?)

There were penguins elsewhere though!

And giraffes. Aren't they cute!

In this photo Nerys and I are supposed to look like giraffes. (Long necks!)
We don't really... shame.

LONDON Holiday fun

Ice skating with John! Such laughs!!

Wheeeeee !

One foot !!!

Me... just moments after completing a triple spin or something equally excellent!

SURREY A walk in the country

This very long, muddy walk in the country was made much more bearable by the fact it finished at a winery!
Alas, Surrey wine isn't really up to much...

Lovely sheep!

The walkers - Emma, Rys, me, Joe and Nick
(minus Renae who took the picture!)

Our muddy feet.

Renae climbing over a stile in style!

Nicko and the muddy path.
