Apres ski

Walking home from town in a light snow shower I was rather delighted to see how our local Swedish cafe has transformed itself into a lookalike chalet for the season.

My experience of skiing has never gone beyond watching it on the television. A good friend of mine once revealed that she had been skiing. I was quite startled as I think of her as one who is a city soul. She laughed out loud at my obvious confusion and went on to clarify " Darling I had all the gear, but never set foot on the slopes. I was rather marvellous at the apres ski though!". I strongly suspect that my strengths would lie in the same area.
