What sort of a ski holiday is that?
Edit: Ah, Florida…that explains it. You may need a travel agent to help you book your next trip!
A fucking shit one.
We were in Telluride, CO. It’s a beautiful resort, but was a complete wipe out for me this year.
Sorry for your loss. I love skiing; used to have a season pass at Thredbo for Aussie winter and every other summer pre kids would go for couple of weeks to BC. Since relocating to Adelaide haven’t been within 200km of a ski slope and I really miss it. Will have to organise a holiday (wife doesn’t like it) but that is an absolute horror story.

I like it, but I feel like I want to like it more than I actually do.
Other than 4 days on a school trip in the 90s, and one random day in my 20s to a really rinky dink resort I dont think had anything bigger than greens, I had never been until 2 years ago. Then I finally joined a group of friends who are all longtime (lifetime) skiers who have been doing this annual trip for nearly 20 years. The trip itself is great especially as some of the group dont live nearby anymore and its the only time I ever get to see their kids. But taking it up as a past time in your early 40s with bad hips is not easy. It just feels like my body is not capable of doing the amount of skiing I need to do to get better, which is a viscous circle because at this level of proficiency everything is just really physically tough, like Im fighting the mountain.
My partner doesnt ski either, so it’s just a LOT of money to spend for the little amount of skiing I get in and I suspect that next year she’ll want to put her time off for something she’ll get more out of.

Keep up. LS lives in Florida (poor man), he’s very clever at US politics and has an even cleverer wife/partner.
You are a Irish bloke living in Adelaide for reasons unknown.
Wow, so sorry for a crappy holiday, a very unlucky series of unfortunate events

Highly contestable! Oirish born but left when young and lived in Australia for 3x as long; Radelaide due to my equally brilliant wife and the ‘bloke’ thing also debatable for reasons related.
Masculinity thread
Ja meinen thread polizei.
pity, that would have made the news all the way to Singapore even. 
Hope you feel better and settle all your lost documents
Ouch!!
That’s a low blow mate 
And FYI, I believe the proper name is actually Piss-ant Town
Don’t mock the afflicted.

He’s just jealous. Radelaide is cool - the clue is in the name!
If ever I’m unfortunate enough to own or run a bar in NYC, I’d like to insist we only hire people who do not have any “NYC experience”. I wanna see “NYC experience” on Wind Street. I wanna see “NYC experience” on St Mary.
What about Adelaide experience?
Asking for a friend.
I don’t know who Adelaide is, but yeah, I’d probably hire her.
Adelaide is a “Piss-ant Town” according to certain experts.
Not sure why that’s hyphenated.
In Australian grammical nuances, the hyphen is used to express and indicate said experts’ superior looks, charm and general top blokish stature.
Or so that expert once told me
Rather drink with pissants than…well, I just like to drink with pissants.
That’s why you’re not called Aussie-lad then I suppose.
