Ski Hire Geeks


Hamish and his fellow loonies had a 'geek' themed day in ski hire, so they all dressed up appropriately.


I never stopped laughing. But secretly I was jealous.

They also had a battery-operated dog chained to a poll that does naughty things...

Birthday in the snow


Hello to all :)
Well, I had my second birthday in the northern hemisphere which means I've been away for a year now, and also that my birthday has been wintery!

We had a great day skiing up at Cairn Gorm, our staff passes getting us free access on the train, up the mountain, ski gear and even lessons!!

Mish shows us how its done

The only photo I got of me in my ski gear and Im not even looking at the camera! Munter!

Aviemore - CairnGorm Mountain


Well here we are in Aviemore - have had 3 days work so far and all is going pretty well. There has been a ridiculous amount of snow over the last few days (apparently we brought the awesome snow with us) and so the mountain staff have been battling to keep the roads and mountain open so that the millions of people who have heard about the fresh powder can get at it.

Here's Mish in his new home, the Ski Hire dept.

Our staff accomodation at Aviemore Highland Resort - nice!

The road we drive to work on - snowy but GORGEOUS


RED SQUIRRELS!!! These were at the Glenmore Cafe :)
