No cash involved
It would be a freebie door-to-door.

You should definitely go
You'll never know if you might have loved skiing otherwise.

True
However, I do know some skiers who really enjoy regaling me with tales of injuries and showing off their scars

this is the equivalent of bragging that you got skin cancer on the beach
or had your legs eaten by a leopard
(old man river possible lesbian, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:02, Reply)

But you love all that comparing scars nonsense

So really your question is: should I go on a free holiday?
I don't see why you wouldn't.

I have a sneaking feeling that the others on the freebie might be competetive types...
...And I can't be arsed. Also there may be some 'team building' bollocks involved.
(Captain Placid 24/7 ball gags, brownie mix and clown porn, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:03, Reply)

if you have to do "team building" exercises then you've already failed as a team

(old man river possible lesbian, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:06, Reply)

I didn't get the 'team building' idea
There will be people from other distributors there so we're all commercial rivals. Why would we want to 'bond' with them?

(old man river possible lesbian, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:47, Reply)

So you feign a flaring up of one of your old back injuries and spend all day in the bar.
Any team-builders will soon be put off by your curmudgeonly demeanour.

Skiing is like most of the middle and upper-class pursuits
merely a device for them to ostentatiously show off how much money they have spent. See also golf, polo (anything to do with horses in fact), "corporate hospitality", etc.

horse riding is fucking good exercise
not so sure about the corporate hospitality

Did you used to fly a kestrel around before it was battered to death by your coalmining brother?

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:12, Reply)

We were too poor to have a kestrel
we had to make do with a dead budgie that next door threw in t'bin.
(localboy purveyor of pisspoor puns, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:16, Reply)

ours nearly joined it last night, the poor little twat
flew into its cage, not via the open door but quite literally into its cage, and got its wing stuck. there was much yelping (and that was just frog) before it was freed and it turned out to be just a few ruffled feathers.

horses can be kept pretty cheaply.
Couple of hundred a month.

(old man river possible lesbian, Tue 9 Dec 2014, 9:26, Reply)

you're one of those dimwits who don't know the difference between assault and battery, aren't you?
to rob someone, you need to put the victim in fear of his/her life or use force against a business/institution etc. so, unless you have a particularly sentient range rover or church roof, you can't reeeeeeeeeally rob it.

simples. even for a scientist.
