Chffing down
... it together. Had I managed it 8 minutes before I would have not been given a 'time out' by the darned machine. Most of Verbier has a weird habit of turning off washing machines between 11.10 and 12.30 and 13.00 and 20.00. No other applicance, or sauna or ski lift, just the washing machines! Grrr.

Chalet Time - Deeep clean!
... air and investigate our surroundings. Found the ski lifts and the shops & bars. Cracked on with more cleaning when we got back. Had dinner round Greg & Emilys with the nannies, 18 in total. After we went for a couple of beers at Bar la Roz with Dave, Louise, , Ant, Meg, Alex & Elaine. Sunday 9 - Finished what we could be bothered to clean in the kitchen although there's not much point because the white walls look like they've been used as ...
