Get into it son - you gotta have at least one day in OzLast edited by a moderator:
Shopping, house cleaning before the gals arrived, coffee, mingling with the local flora and fauna, rollin' the Benz... a soccer mum's work is never done.
OK people, here comes the weather! In the past five minutes Geelong has gone from a lovely sunny day, with doors and windows open, to very dark and windy. As I wrote that last line heavy rain has started falling. Hope this ends up as promised on the hill.
been in touch with PP and we may have a more sinister issue with the VS cam. I will see what I can do when I get up there on Sat morning - sorry folks, can't get there earlier as Mrs LTB's gran died ( 100 y.o ) and she has to fly to Mildura tomorrow for funeral and not back until late tomorrow night. It was a good innings for Gran.
Sorry to hear that LTB, my condolences.
Anybody on the hill got an update? I feel lost without the VS cam
Wow 100 is a great innings! Sounds like she'll beat the Vs cam by about 98 years.
Definitely been snowing at Buller. Look at Apira cam.
Sorry for the loss LTB.
My grandmother on my fathers side got to 101, it's a hell of an innings.
our kids are in for the long haul. Mrs LTB's gran 100, my gran died last Xmas at age 90 and my grandad is still going strong at 96. The othet grandparents mostly made it well into their 80's. I reckon our kids will go to 110! ( I'm planning on living hard and dying young myself - 90 will do me.......)
hey CC - we really should catch up and have a beer during IS. We live about 5 mins apart in Melb and both ski Buller. What Div is your boy in?luvthabumps said:

Scientists recently announced that they believe the first people to live to 150 have already been born!luvthabumps said:
Then the ethicists weighed in, pointing out that, living to 150, people could reasonably be expected to be working into their 90s, and that this would require some rather savage rethinking of the whole superannuation system.
If over 70 or 75s currently ski for free, might this mean that the resorts will be paying those over 100 to ski...?Last edited by a moderator:
**** MOD NOTE ****
Ian has just informed me that in the coming days they will be dropping the Disqus comments from each of the main ski.com.au snow report pages and instead posting the content from the 'Pics/Info/Reports' threads for each resort.
ie: http://ski.com.au/reports/australia/vic/buller/index.html
Due to this he has asked for tighter, weather forum-style moderation on this particular thread.
The good news is that there is, and has always been a Banter thread for the good-natured ribbing that Buller regulars are used to.
So from now I'm going to ask you (and I very much include myself in this) to kindly keep this thread to posts of a factual nature regarding the weather, conditions, photos, reports etc and use the Banter thread for all other posts.
IMO
Stay on Topic

10cms overnight, not too shabby, about 1/3 of the way there to what I was expecting for this system/s. Today will be one for getting out of the wind and finding some good stashes.
Yep for sure.
My thoughts on what it needs to be is somewhere that a no forum reader or lurker can quickly drop in and find out what they need to without knowing all the personalities and in-jokes etc.Skied all day today fresh tracks everywhere came in for lunch at 2 back out 2.30 got to powder Keg after leaving it for lunch looked virtually untouched again the second half of outer edge is almost skiable I have skied it with less snow
