Chffing down
... trip round Migros to stock our sad looking fridge. 30CHF doesn't fill even one bag despite buying own brand. It will be a pasta-fuelled season.. . again. Phone topup purchased so shouldn't have desperate run out for a while.
Silly tokens for washing machine purchased and I just about figured the machine out. 3 sets of instructions-in French,German and Italian. I have smattering of each ...
A nice gentle start on the slopes

Chalet Time - Deeep clean!
... It was our turn to cool tonight but since Sandrine couldn't get to the shops we didn't have a lot of food to work with or practice the menu plan so Tim whipped up a couple of Frittatas, a goats cheese pie, nicoise salad and a chocolate cheesecake - so we had a lovely informal dinner tonight. Sat 8 - Time to start the deep clean, not a fun task did this for 3 hours then popped to Pap 2 for Tomato Soup made by Dave then we went for a walk with Megan to get ...
