It’s snowing. Again. And it’s really cold! No, we’re not still in the Alps, we are somewhere much, much colder. Scotland! As the season faded to a close, we left Megeve (more on that another day, I am yet to write about our somewhat unusual season!), headed home to do our quarantine, and then toddledContinue reading “New season, new job!”

Update June 2020
For those who have followed our story thus far – Rick has seen his oncologist since returning to the UK, and yesterday had a ‘just in case’ ultrasound. He has been doing really well but still struggles with a lot of food due to not producing saliva normally. Also, his mouth is very sensitive –Continue reading “Update June 2020”

The closedown this year was quite surreal. Our guests arrived on Saturday, and by that evening weContinue reading “Coronavirus Lockdown, part One”

Now, it seems, every spare moment is punctuated by a check in on social or the news to find out what is happening. We’re on the French Italian border. Guests are predominantly from the UK, andContinue reading “Coronavirus Rantings”

Bringing in 2020 in (chalet) style
Wow, what a New Year! This year we really got to see and enjoy the events in resort and La Rosiere did a cracking job. At teatime there was a torchlit descent of the mountain, with around 250 participants and around 50 children, it was really pretty watching them all come down with their redContinue reading “Bringing in 2020 in (chalet) style”
