Ski Trip to erm... Austria.
I'll keep it short.

Dad was a teacher... asked me to come on Ski Trip to a) get some free skiing, and b) look after the Posh Runts.

this particular breed of kids were borh with silver spoons (and candlesticks) in appropriate orifices, and while that in itself is no sin, Believeing that you're better than everyone else becuase you can afford to go skiing for weeks on end with your Au-Pair Is.

A little runt who, admittedly could control Skis was told to follow the guide.. DO NOT step / Ski out of line. He didn't do as he was told. He broke off the group to go under an aluminium sign. It was on 2 posts... he went between. He got a bollocking from a teacher and a guide.

Next day, the lad doees EXACTLY the same thing. Same sign, same place.... Except that overnight the Piste Bashers had raised the snow level. He practicly scalped himself as he tried to go under the aluminium sign again.

Didn't ski again that holiday... and got 54 stitches.

My stomach hurt from laughing so much. He's probablöy a manger in daddy's company now though.
