Chill Factor skiing taster

went to Chill Factor today with people from work for our Christmas do. I seem to have been absent the day they asked what everyone wanted to do and so I ended up with a "skiing taster". this consisted of ten minutes learning how to attach the skis, which could have been done in ten seconds, then queuing for 40 minutes to have three goes down the very bottom of the very smallest slope. Approximately the length of my living room. For this I spent 13 quid on waterproof gloves I will almost certainly never wear again. I got a taster of what it feels like to wear skis (the taste was "infuriating when you don't actually get to do anything on them") but that was pretty much it, other than a 5 minute sales pitch at the end to come back and do a whole day (apparently they let you ski if you pay for the whole day).

Epic, epic fail
