As they reached the top they seemed unaware that the bar needed to be raised for ease of dismount and in a mad panic they both tried to limbo under the bar resulting in skis and poles flying in all directions and two crumpled bodily heaps half in half out of the chair. Fortunately the operator stopped the lift and it took quite a time to unravel them but nobody was injured. All who saw it were doubled up with laughter and too rather red faced beginners snowploughed off into the distance.

Sorry if it was you, but it made my day Razz Razz Razz

My wife has alot of sympathy for the poor people,she said that they dont teach you long enought on how to get on and off the chairs my answer was you would always end up staying at bottom if you didnt try and thats were the fun begins getting on the chair lifts
