    It was okay thanks Woo. Managed to sell my old snowboard and bindings for £100 which was pretty good as that saved me on eBay. Got a few other things to go on there soon too. Didn't really do too much was a very MSE weekend.

    How about yourself?

    Cool, that's £100 towards your new board or your holiday in Feb :)

    Only 7 weeks until I go, need lots more snow between now and then though!

    It will be going towards the new board. That was £480 so need to cut that down as much as I can.

    I have Andorra booked for 2nd Feb, and looking to go to Austria when I can. 7 weeks is not long at all, where are you going? There's a lot of snow about at the moment in Europe :D

    I'm going to sauze d'oulx, Italy - keep checking the web cam and there is nowhere near enough snow yet :(

    I'm scared I'm gonna put my board on and forget what to do!

    I did two weeks over Christmas and New Year, then went back for another week at the end of Feb.

    I bet you can't wait to try your new board out!

    I have been looking at the apartments online again today, I wish I could move to Morzine now :)

    Only one week for me this year though, which sucks :( It will be so hard to resist doing another trip in the New Year.

    How many seasons have you been boarding for now? This will be my 3rd.

    PS: Liking the new FB pic Adam - your friend is quite cute lol!!!
