Broithe Posted December 11, 2022 Author Share Posted December 11, 2022 This has the potential to be annoying - a high-speed sleeper? It'll probably stop half-way through an episode and continue on a bus, with no heating... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudfan Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) First decent snowfall of the season. Funnily enough it was crunchy and crispy down low but pure soft powdery higher up. Tiring especially on the slopes. Just a few photos. When I was leaving this morning about 10.30am the Mrs informed me that it was -3 degrees according to her phone. Funnily enough when I was putting my gear into the car I gathered that I would not be wearing shorts....
