Evenin' All,

It's my OH's birthday in a couple of weeks and I'm thinking of booking a short break in Scotland with the idea of going to a dry ski slope. When he was in the army he used to go skiing and has been mithering me to go for the last few years. It really doesn't appeal to me 😮 but as it's his 40th birthday I thought I'd consider making the sacrifice.
Can anyone recommend which ski centre to go to bearing in mind he is intermediate level and I would be a bums on floor level, sorry novice!!:rolleyes:
Ideally I don't want to go much further up than Loch Lomond but depends what's on offer.
Hope you can help!! Thanks.;)

Hi Treac.........you could fall over on your first run....and pretend you have hurt yourself........or..........just enjoy the experience of skiing and have masses of fun.

We went to Bulgaria skiing for the first time, a couple of years ago and it was great fun....and quite easy to do....just have a few lessons first.

Hello Treacle,

Here in Glasgow there is a place call Xscape, I'm sure they have a website, there is an indoor, real ski slope there. Good city, to visit - lots going on and fab places to stay and eat.
