Yeah I'm happy to see their updates and photographs too. Gives me something to think about at lunchtime and takes your mind off the daily grind. I was at Glencoe yesterday, and seeing the blue sky pics the day made me think back to a good day and look forward to heading up again.

Southern Ski your facebook page must be full of very important people and very important updates eh. Funny cause all I've got are daft lassies talking about shopping at braehead, how they hate Mondays and what they fancy for their dinner.

In fact the more updates the better please, might mean I miss some of the other shit that makes you feel like shutting your facebook down.

Yes, I also like updates and photos of the conditions from the resorts. Though sometimes there are 10 status updates every day from Glencoe. The important and interesting stuff gets lost in the shite. Very irritating if you use facebook and twitter for other things to have one person shouting all the time.

good conditions all over the upper mountain yesterday, snow had softened a bit since monday and had groomed up rather nicely. place was dead though (bad for the business but good for those who showed up). Definitely time toget some optical inserts for my goggles though, the number of times i failed to see rather obvious rocks until they were right in front of me was considerable. i foresee a wholly necessary shoppping spree in the near future.

Cannon was running last night and again for a short time this morning before temperatures started to rise.

There's only two hobbit houses on site yet and they are sitting on delivery pallets so they are not available for renting yet. The early season storms put paid to getting them installed for the ski season.
