Last summer Toby found a brilliant new toy on the internet. A remote control helicopter. Well “quadrocopter”. And you control it from your iPhone. Which is a pretty cool way to fly anything really.

So naturally we saw this as a valuable addition to the ski school and got one. Sadly as it’s been a busy winter Toby hasn’t had the time to practice flying it much, so after he and Caroline organised an epic barbecue Tobes decided to show off his skills. They were slightly lacking.

The sun has been shining for weeks and the instructors here are all battling against some serious goggle marks. Hardly a massive trauma. And Toby has dusted down the BBQ so we’re all off to eat all his food in the sunshine in a bit.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – it’s a tough life…

Welcome to this week’s weather report, and we have to dash your hopes as this week we’ve only got Guy to act like Michael Fish.

But we also have tons of sunshine, tons of snow and tons of love for the spring conditions. Enjoy…

(And we’re especially proud of the arty shot of the goggles. Inspired.)

Yes, the sun is out and Pierluca and Mikey decided to even out there tans…

Yes, we have bullied actor, legend and all round top bloke Jason Flemyng to do the weather report for us. He was up at Carrefour, we were up at Carrefour, one thing led to another and he put’s in a rather fine performance I think you’ll agree.

The weather report is a well known springboard to greatness so we’re going to have our people talk to his people…

even bigger news than us getting all star struck that we had 20cm of fresh snow last night and it’s cold again. So when Guy said “it’ll stay sunny for weeks” he was being a fool.

So tomorrow sun’s back out and if you’re lucky we’ll have a raft of photos for you… We can’t promise any celebrities though.
