That’s it Christmas fever has finally hit Saltrock HQ here in Braunton. Christmas songs on the radio and the Secret Santa list has gone round and the Christmas tree has been ousted from the depths of our storage area! Even the MD has been ‘Christmased’ with twinkling lights draped across his office by a phantom decorator.
There’s been a rush downstairs to the factory shop to stock up on stocking fillers and make the most of the fantastic saving on offer at the moment. Hats, scarfs, gloves and those lovely fleecy jackets have also been in great demand as the temperature has plummeted seasonally in time for a lovely crisp Christmas.
We’ve all ear-marked the Saltrock snowboard jackets for our new-year travels but are waiting for the last minute deals to book our hols. Having had a fantastic time in La Clusaz in France last March, with sunny sky’s and perfect conditions we’ve got high expectations for our next trip. The village is beautiful and whilst the slopes challenged those of us who were there for a more hardcore trip the ski schools for the kids meant a stress free time for the adults and plenty of venues for long lunches for those slightly less dedicated. With the transfer time of just under an hour from Geneva it’s defiantly got our return vote.
No snow in North Devon at this time of year but inspired by the season we grabbed our snowboards and headed off to the sand dunes last weekend for a little bit of pretend boarding! With a clear blue sky and frost on the beach the dunes at Saunton were just prefect for a bit of pre-season training. We might have had sand in our boot instead of snow at the end of the session by the après-ski was just as welcome at Thatch in Croyde.
