Yes it was ace

and you know what I'm good at it. I can consistlenly perform a corner on the local slope which over doubles the length of the ride. Not seen anyone else do it although my son was close

Went sledging on Sunday and my husband broke a rib and today was the first time he has been able to walk outside the house because of his injured ankle! His foot could easily feature in an episode of Waking the Dead, it looks so terrible. So needless to say he isn't sleding again for a while. I love it though but admit I don't bounce as well as I did as a kid!
