I can’t believe it’s 2010 already, this year has gone by so fast!
It ended well with a really enjoyable skiing holiday in Val d’sere, with my friend Wendy, the Knowles family and friends. It was great skiing, even though most days it was -16 or below. Xanthi entertained us all with her perfomance on the T bar. Defintely worthy of the £250 on you have been framed, if any of us could have stopped laughing for long enough to film it. Olly (Richardson) and Josh impressed us with throwing themsleves off various outcrops and rocks, something they were trying to encourage me and Olly (Knowles) to do. Olly managed to get the job of oficial photographer and I did a good dissapearing act.
Anyway a big thankyou to everyone for an enjoyable holiday, to Claire our Chalet Maid for being and excellent hostess and cook and to Dave for some great ski hosting days!

Christmas was spent at home in Southampton, just Steve and myself, which suited me fine as I had picked up a virus at the end of skiing so had the perfect excuse to curl up on the couch and watch all the Christmas movies. We caught up with the family on boxing day and spent most of the day playing with the scalextric set we had bought my niece. New Year was spent with my parents and Wendy in our local Pub before flying out to Turkey. I’m here only for a few days and then it’s off to warmer climates for some training in Miami and the Olympic Classes Regatta.
