Zac's health!?!?). He was up during the night for two hours with one
of his infamous, non-stop nosebleeds........... Again too weak and
tired to ski. But he was better by 5pm after I was forced into playing
Sims with him on Ellie's Macbook for eight hours solid?
Kids had another awesome day in the park competing in the British
Slopestyle Champioships. Look it up online if you've no idra what that
is; combination of tricks and jumps off rails and ramps. Was told by
all & sundry how well they'd all done but will wait for prize-giving
to see if the normal illogical, Sheffield-biased, "favoured persons"
total bollocks judging (if that's what its called) pans out............
Kids went swimming again and returned blue as usual; why do these
hotels advertise pools and then put their temperatures lower than the
North Sea; is it to actively discourage people from actually using
them or am I being cynical??
Well judging came and yippee; the girls judging was actually spot on
according to all participants and crowds. Ellie got 2nd place in the
British Slopestyle championships and came 5th overall in the country/
out of all participants. Now I am a proper happy "competitive
dad"!!!!! Francis got nothing though but he is only 8 competing in the
U14's. Josh got shafted by illogical and unfair judging and, as
everyone else in the hall, was totally flabbergasted that he was
beaten by someone who fell twice? I do feel sorry for him as it IS
just total nonsense this dodgy judging. It IS always the same
favourites who get placed whatever they do or however they perform.
The organisers need to realise that people spend a LOT of money, time
and effort getting over here and everything should be scrupulously
fair and above board.
Anyway; looking forward to tomorrow and actually skiing! Got Zac in
lessons from 9-11am for the last three days......................
