Dual Slalom

After the success of Holly's lesson at Hillend, Helen had set up some private lessons for both of the kiddies at Polmont Hill Ski Centre, an odd little slope in West Lothian with delightful views over the refinery at Grangemouth. Skiing doesn't get any more exotic than this, I tell you! Anyhoo Louis had his first ever go and - inspired no doubt by his older sister - seemed to pick it up with no trouble at all. Holly, meantime, is progressing with her snowplough and even jumping. A little. Next lesson, they're going to have a go at the tow, which will free them from all that sidestepping.
