A note from the editor 5

In the words of the Fast show 'This week I have been mostly mopping floor and washing dishes!' This ski bum has been putting on the rubber (gloves that is!) and getting his hands dirty (although I know if I'm wearing rubber gloves I can't get hands dirty, but that's semantics!) down at the Hotel ISBA.
The Staff of 98/99 (and before) arrived in force at the beginning of the week and went someway to make this newyear a memorable one. With only a few exceptions most of the Auberge staff of past are accounted for.
Now before I get started I can already hear you complaning that these people are now punters and shouldnít be getting all this press. I retort by saying that these are ex-seasonaires who in their time raised more hell and had more of a good time that this and last seasonís seasonaires put together.
In comparison the seasonaires of past could drink this seasons ìpanache drinking, coupled up excuse for workersî well and truely under the table!
