I have always wondered what it must be like to be a liftie – when I lived in Whilster-Blackcomb my drinking buddy was a liftie, very polite and practical but the worst snowboarder I have seen and very often stinking like meths at the time of the first lift. At times I cannot imagine how frustrating it must be with all those smiling faces passing by, I guess the flip side is in blizzard conditions with a heater on and Austrian volksmusik blaring out of the radio. With views to die for and not too much in the way of tough commutes then the job certainly has a good deal going for it.

haha…the best was a lift guy I know…a complete rocker and very local attitude who was so relieved when he saw my friends and me at the lift “finally some normal people, all this crazy checkers” haha…but anyway it was really cool and chilled!

Oi! Chaka Khan did a bit of rapping. Anyway I tried for the baggy look but the summer months have meant I now fill the baggy stuff. I would need to ski with the Millennium Dome as my suit to get the baggy look in October 2009.

The reason Kathy went to this and matt decided not is because he is far too old to mix with the cool snowboard crowd and certainly too old to appreciate Hip Hop bands!! ( unless you include Flos drunk rapping!)
