Just back from an excellent week in Austria, skiing in the Schladming area. A very friendly bunch of people, as always with Oak Hall trips. My falling over statistics: SUN 9, MON 0, TUE 0, WED 1, THU 1, FRI 0, SAT 0. Boiling hot weather, cloudless skies every day, skiing in Tshirt and fleece. Somehow the snow-machines and the piste-bashers kept the runs open for us.

Games played: JENGA - I fell in with a bunch of obsessive Jenga players with their own house-rules ("No middles!"), and SHITHEAD - taught to us by the holiday's Bible-speaker for the week!
