damian 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 It is always excruciatingly distracting for me when real people start doing the real thing. Rather than just talking about it on the internet like most of us do from our snowless countries. If you can't wake up in the morning and see the mountains and snow then you're struggling to be much more than a ski holiday maker. Most of us are in that wannabe box. But not everyone! It's all or nothing boys: you're living right in the middle of the real thing. Get out there and do it. Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Author Share Posted October 9, 2006 yeah but I must finish wallpapering first spud. Its all part of the master plan really. untill that time I must continue to work to that point. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Take a day to go ski touring and catch up on the wallpapering by staying up really late one night. Link to post Share on other sites
holo 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 use the touring to get closer to nature and incorporate the natural theme into the redecorations. Ergo ski touring = decoration research Link to post Share on other sites

I'm tempted to write that in this case you're a loser, rather than a holiday-maker, but that would be unkind We've just had two days of fierce winds and heavy rain. Tomorrow should be clear, so I plan to head up to Funagata Yama to check out the newly opened road, and the snow Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 FT - sleep from 4am to 9am. You can cope with that once a week. Soub - I like the truth even if it is unkind. Link to post Share on other sites
soubriquet 0 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 OK loser, here's what I see in the winter. It's just across the valley from where I live. Nothing big or special, but I see it every day (except when it's snowing) from my bedroom window. Soul food. The central bowl is summer grazing for cattle. The local petrol heads like to go up there to rinse out their snowmobiles. I need to get a lift in, and climb up to the ridge one day. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Well, when it comes to waking up and having a purpose to do so outside ones window, I am indeed a loser and you are a big winner! Its not only a nice view, its also a very nice scenic photograph. It'll be good to see the pic of the seasons first snow after the storm clears. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 For me, when it comes to waking up and having a purpose to do so is not outside ones window but lays beside me when I wake. Nothing else matters. Link to post Share on other sites

soubriquet 0 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Country life has many benefits. Home grown is one of them, along with someone warm to hold on cold nights. Hong Kong has nothing to offer that can`t be found here. Link to post Share on other sites

In London a bunch of us were in a taxi, drunk. One of the girls whom I only met that evening was a cocaine snorting PR marketing type from Hong Kong. She was busting for a pee and so asked the taxi to stop, she hoped out and promptly took a squat on the sidewalk next to the taxi. She was hiding from the traffic but left the taxi door open for all of us to see (and hear) You'll not easily find a 'lady' like that in Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
