My trip is absolutely nuts.... It rains the whole time so no one does any skiing. Instead we spend our time playing around drinking wine. A quiet night at home ends in complete mayhem: 12 bottles of wine and two bottles of cognac consumed between 6 people. The fact that we have a crazy French staying with us doesn't help - he's one of the most hilarious people I've ever met. At lunch in a hotel in Gstaad he takes off his pants and hands them to the waiter to have them shortened. I guess the staff working in the various hotels and restaurants in Gstaad are used to most ridiculous requests so his pants are taken away without a frown. The French trots off wearing boxers, knee high socks, a shirt and a coat. Walks into one of the fancy stores on the high street flashing his boxers while asking for a pair of pants. His brand new red pants are pictured above.
