SKI

Nozawa is good. So is Shiga Kogen (go right to the top, ski fans!)

Got something to say, my friend?

Push yourself (not too much mind), you'll feel better for it!

Suki (both variations), yuki

Excellent!

45 as the final number, unless I sneak a Gassan in in June.

When I have been down to Dynaland or other resorts in that area, they always seem to be quite busy. I've never been down further than that.

A blast from the past. Get yaself a ZX Spectrum emulator, then head over to http://www.80snostalgia.com/computers/spectrum/horacegoesskiing.html for some Hungry Horace skiing action

I wasn't implying just Americans doing this, danz. Don't get all paranoid Not really a huge fuss either I suppose, just interested in why.

All the time

Ah, that's it! Good idea.

My bank book has a family of geese on it. Mummy is wearing an apron, daddy has a case (he's obviously a salaryman), and the 2 kids have their cute school uniforms on. They all look very happy.

What gets me is people wanting to put up a 10ft flag outside their house on a big prominent flagpole. They're very welcome to of course, but.... WHY?????

Drepressing isn't it. We have our snow to enjoy still though

Great first series. They don't really have any other option but ridiculous storylines if they do more series. Otherwise it would be boring

Skiing.

I'm doing alright actually this year, getting there.

More, for sure.

Sugadaira (friends live nearby); Okutadami (friends, again - late season); Hakkai

Shiga Kogen, looking good for the weekend

Anyone here follow/watch them? There seems to be quite a few shown on Sky Sports channel, haven't watched them mind.

Well, regular readers will probably know my thoughts on this. As for db 'withdrawing' - now that just seems a little silly ....if you don't like a thread or disagree strongly with something, just ignore it! The vast majority of people will see through crazy posters thoughts and treat them as such!

Quote: was talking more bout the majority.. Well, that certainly sounds like it would apply to both skiers and snowboarder.

I love Haus St Anton in Nozawa. Not the cheapest but a great place - sometimes difficult to get a booking coz so popular.
