I was there and had the 'luxury' of staying in the Aviemore Centre 
(I also managed about 4/5 other trips whilst under training)
Best skiing trip was to Switzerland, April 1973...(over to you Bootybandy!)

Normandy Hell..........
That was the name of the bottled beer that was as strong as a mule on Steroids. Three bottles of that Bill and I was swimming in the local fountain. Davos was the very posh ski resort we ended up at if you remember Bill. Nowadays only Royalty and the like go there. Come to think of it, we were Royal at the time. 
Another escapade was the Summer leave expedition to North Africa when Brian Walker, Brian Goldsmith and moi, tried to hitch-hike to north Africa. We got as far as a lovely town on the French coast just before the Spanish border before Messr Walker had a dodgy tooth that needed attention if I remember correctly. So we got on the train and straight back. I've still got a picture of the three B's wearing Scottish Bonnets doing dead ant impersonations. I will try and dig them out and get them posted. Ooohhh... weren't we young!!!

The School of Music are off to Bavaria shortly on Adventure Training to do a spot of winter sports... I know most of the old and bold went to Loch Ewe so don't be too upset as it is colder there!
