man down

    in an ideal world the correct way would be to get up nice and early have a good healthy breakfast perhaps do a bit of yoga to strectch yourself pack all the equipment you left out prepared last night and head of to the slopes fresh from your good nights sleep ,
         what actually happened was after our late night out and the young teams nightclubbing adventures ,we woke late 09:30 and then had to gather all our abandoned equipment grab a bowl of cornflakes for sustenance for those that could face it , cammy refused point blank to move he said he would join us later , so we were a man down today when we set off , he totally missed out the morning weather was lovely and our first few runs around val thorens were the perfect start to our day. we had intended to go over to pointe du buchete where there is a zip wire slung between two mountains , we took the wrong chairlift and ended up in the next valley but it was all good ! because we stopped for coffee at a place called portettes and discovered a great bar and restaurant right in viewing distance form our appartment ,we had been wondering what that Red Cross that was lit up at night ,we can see it from our appartment at night, its actually a bar called bar 360 that is up there an excellent place and at night it lights up a crossed fork and knife on its roof at night,  ross even met santa clause and two of his reindeers !we tried to get cammy on the radios but he is ignoring us so i sent him a txt and he is still refusing to move, we went on a couple of easy runs around that area as the weather got misty windy and cold and decided to have lunch in bar 360,  and an excellent lunch it was fresh made pizza stone baked ,the weather improved slightly and we skied a few runs around that area before a couple of apres ski beers in bar 360, where the dj was pumping out the tunes and the crowds were paying 5euros to get into the dance area , we opted to stay outside the dance area but close enough on seats to enjoy the atmosphere , another good day on the slopes but sad to be down a man and not getting more done in the morning 
           when we got back cammy hadnt even got out of bed ! i went to the shops and got some food for  the appartment , team carlin got there shorts out and visited the appartment blocks steam room sauna etc cammy just watched TV , we had curry got changed and headed out this was not going to be a big beer night we were all tired . we visited the appartment blokes bar which is on the 10th floor it used to be called moo bar ( it still says it on the hotel lift )but now its the burger bar, we required the free wifi for ross we had a few beers here then headed up to oconnels ,nobody was in the mood to party but we were all aware our holiday is coming to an end we are already over the half way and planning our final couple of days on the slopes and out in town , we only had a couple of beers in oconnelks and headed home well ross via the kebab shop me and cammy had left over dinner time curry .
