Fantastic snow through January…
January was an “interesting” month… I fell ill and ended up actually being hospitalised in Annecy for over two weeks… (hence no blog posts in January).
Thankfully, I am now out, and prescribed a nice selection of medications, and am slowly coming back to health… In a month, I lost about 20kg of weight… Now I am out, Helen has me on restricted duty… Unfortunately, it looks like I will not be fit enough to ski for quite some time yet!! This is rather disappointing as the snow is currently amazing….. Tant pis. C’est la vie!!
Consequently, it has been a very busy month for Helen, keeping the chalet running smoothly… So, a big thank you to Tim, Helen’s nephew, who is helping us out mornings and evenings, and Nikki who has been a fantastic help with the cleaning… So, it has basically been service as normal! We have been lucky to have had fantastic guests who have been very understanding of the situation too…
Tim’s chosen speciality is canapés and aperos… and ”apero-boy” as he has been nicknamed is even planning a book… Good luck with that, Tim!
Anyhow… January is now over and February has begun…
This means the days are getting longer and warmer… and the snow is simply perfect at the moment.
There should be some great skiing for our guests…..

What can I say but another fantastic holiday made all the better by Leighton’s return from hospital. Thanks to Helen and Tim for making it very special on and off the slopes and thank also to Tony the Tiger for the bubbly. Cheers Guys!
