    Fraid so - I am even called Rumncoke on another forum.

    As I only drink good dark rum it is the only way to stop falling over, or sliding down walls and staircases etc. It is too heavy for my head, but I like the taste.

    We have not had any snow for about 15 years.

    We used to see heavy falls every few years, but it just stopped. I have a few photos of the snow Ruperts and dinosaurs I used to make - it is great fun compressing and carving snow, and impresses the offspring too. Any errors can simply be reattached and redone, so it is easy really.

    I do miss the snow.

    After seeing Ozone's pic of kilted skiing, I'm tempted! It's about time to get the skis out, have them tuned, and wait for the ski areas to open!

    Of course I'm partial to Wolf Creek Ski Area (www.wolfcreekski.com) in Southern Colorado - can't really argue with an avg NATURAL base of 120"+ and no lift lines!!

    HMMM... am I sensing a kilted ski day coming on?? How about my other kilted coloradoans?

    While it sounds great to me, these old knees won't put up with it any more. I'll just wait in the bar at the base with all the snow bunnies
