Winter in retrospect

Several posts were planned months ago, but I'm lazy, at times. Skiing is however a vital part of winter, both cross-country and downhill. I suck at both compared to most Norwegians, but I'm brilliant compared to most Brits.

 All four pics above from cross country skiing. Pic below: Just managed to get off the t-hook lift, ready to set off down hill on my carving skiis with my right-legged tibia in pain. I had just had a rather nasty fall. But notice my cool Oakley goggles and Fjällräven anorak. Yes, don't I look dashing!
