FollowColin played at the Alpine Hotel yesterday evening. Really good night – the place was packed. The hotel’s new owners were there and I’m sure they will have been impressed.
Val was off to work early again this morning, and I popped down to Interlaken in search of cheap beer. Alas, I found none. Back in Wengen work on the race is in full swing, and the ‘World Cup Village’ is under construction.
This will eventually become a big stage for the prize giving and, needless to say, a lot of bars and food outlets. It’s amazing to think that all this stuff comes up on the train, and that in 10 days time it’ll all be going back down to Lauterbrunnen. They must sell an awful lot of beer to make it worthwhile.
