Morning
I have finally sorted out my sleeping schedule so I'm not awake all night and asleep all day. This makes me happy.

I've been doing some work on a little side project recently. If you're not interested in skiing or snowboarding, look away now.

Inspired by a series of increasingly shit articles on skiing in Scotland in various papers, I've had a go at putting together a fairly comprehensive guide to what you should take with you, how to interpret snow forecasts, what to bear in mind if you're going on a day trip and so on. It's in three sections - roughly corresponding to general advice applicable anywhere in the world, stuff that's specific to Scotland, and advice on making day trips. It's still in a very unfinished form so any comments would be appreciated, but I think it's worth reading if you're planning to go skiing for the first time.

Three-and-a-half-thousand times a cunt.

The app I'm working on at home has a load of skiing/snowboarding videos, true story.
Apparently the season is really late this year. One of our brands, Whitelines, just organised the world's longest rail for snowboarding.

STOP QUENDING ME

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Tue 6 Dec 2011, 9:48, Reply)

You're quending yourself.
I am merely an observer, you fucking dunce.

verily forsooth your quending has verily disturbed my countenance and there shall be vengeance verily in your quendering

It's the only one I know.
From my GCSE Macbeth.

I had King Lear and Twelfth Night,
both of which are shit.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 6 Dec 2011, 9:45, Reply)

As far as his "comedies" go
Twelfth Night is pretty much the best.

I think I win in the tedious stakes
Taming Of The Shrew.

AND they made us go and see Kiss Me, Kate as a result.

Then did Merchant Of Venice, which I actually really liked.

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Tue 6 Dec 2011, 10:13, Reply)

it's funny because
if you actually knew anything about me, you'd know that the chance to have enough time to be lonely would be a peaceful blessing.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 6 Dec 2011, 10:20, Reply)

you can be lonely in a crowded room

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Tue 6 Dec 2011, 10:25, Reply)

genuine serious answer here
i've never felt lonely in my life. rare occasions when i am by myself i fucking love a bit of solitude. sure it might change as i get older, but i can't see that happening.

It's pretty late on the continent, yeah
Canada is fine and it's on course up here for a start in the next couple of weeks, which is fairly standard.

Also, I've never "got" rails
they are a piece of piss on a snowboard and unfeasibly hard on skis. something a little more "middling" would make more sense.
