Faith in folk restored

With the family from hell gone, thank the lord, our new guests arrived. We had a father and daughter from the UK, Ulrik and Maya. Ulrik was the Official club chiropractor for the Premiership Rugby 2009 winners Leicester Tigers. So as you can imagine there was plenty of rugby talk at the table. We also had a family from the Netherlands, Mum, Dad, kids and boyfriends. All very lovely, exactly what we needed after our horrid week.

It wasn't long before we had a few injuries, one day in fact! A popped shoulder, a swollen ankle and a dodgy knee! All part and parcel of a week in the Alps I guess!

Tales from a dining table.....

The thing is, Muslims, well, they all love a bacon sandwich really.... A 'red run' well, I thought it was more like a blue. ya'de, ya'de, ya'de... You two are great, fantastic, but this lot, well, we will be writing to ATOL without a doubt.... If you two ever open a restaurant, B&B or hotel, please, let us know as we will definitely come to dine / stay ....... Here's ya, our card, do stay in touch..... Right, Ja'smine, our daughter. Do not on any count buy her any cigarettes if she asks as she is only 13 but she smokes like a train when given the chance.... Do you think my fake English ID will work in town if I try and buy some cigarettes.... Please let me make this clear. This isn't directed at you two. But you will be hearing from my lawyers.... I only told you to come back if you could sort all I asked of you.... Do you have any coke or sprite as the kids do not drink water...... It's upstairs, somewhere. Try looking in the Louis vuitton, Cartier or Gucci wash bags.... Oh no I can't eat soft cheese as I'm pregnant. Oh Dave or Fe is there any more beers as while these lot polish off the cheese I'll pop up out for smoke and a cheeky beer prior to coffee...... In the future we are just going to self design and build as even when we spent 8 million we were still having to put up with other peoples ghastly interior tastes..... Back in our day, well, things were all very different.... You know you mentioned the 'blue bus service'' is the one to use to come up the hill if not skiing back to the chalet. Well, we sat at the stop for a good 40 mins and the only buses that went past were white ones so in the end we just walked.... So, do you get to do much skiing then or have you just purely come out to cook and clean up for 6 months solid .... Oh, oven roasted cod on a bed of 'lemons', parsley butter drizzled with white wine. Can I have some sliced lemon with that.....
