Big chill weekend

As well as doors open day in Edinburgh, which saw us go to the NTS and World heritage buildings in Charlotte Square, it's also the big chill weekend at the Hillend ski centre.

Maddy and I headed out on the bus since Roz was visiting her granny inthe borders. We went out for the free beginners lessons but since they were too basic for Maddy who's been doing skiing with her school we took advantage of the three hours for the price of one offer they have on at the moment instead. Cue Maddy spending two and a half hours skiing for £5.40 including hire while I dotted about taking photos and checked out some of th ebig air competition.

Fantastic value.
