Crystal Finest go all 80s in Kalico

A note from the editor
I’ve come across a sort of catch 22 situation. The following rant is aimed at people who don’t actually read this so ultimately it’s pointless but as that’s never stopped me before I will carry on anyway.
On a weekly basis I try to inform every one of the many interesting things going on in resort but looking at the turnout at these events it looks like very few people are aware of them. After speaking to many people it appears that only a small number of my readership actually read it. Admit it most of you have a quick look at the pictures and quickly scan to see if you name/company (if you’re a Scott Dunn manager) isn’t mentioned. And if it isn’t, please don’t file it in the small cylindrical filing cabinet sitting next to your desk or leave it on the floor of the Jumpbar. I know some of you value it on the same level as the paper used to wipe your arse. For those I apologise for not printing in Andrex copier paper.
However my faith was slightly restored when some slightly dazed Mark Warner staff commented on the great Wednesday night mutzig deals down in the Pleasure bar in 1550. Not only had they read it here but they had actually got out of 1850 and done something different. They should also try their lively Flugel Thursdays.
Not only that but, as you can see from the above photo, some seasonnaires albeit only one company, (Crystal finest to use their collect name) actually made an effort and dressed up for the 80’s disco night at Kailcos. Most notable was Lucy and Sophia who didn’t quite understand the term underwear putting their pants on general display. Not that that I’m complaining but being someone who remembers the 80’s firsthand I don’t think that style ever caught on (with the possible exception of Madonna). However this Tuesday night such daring fashions will fit in much better as Kailco hosts a Pimps & Prostitutes night.

Alex, the editor.

Injury of the week
The curse of the hotel Anemones continues claiming it’s next victim. No sooner than the manager Debbie had ditched her crutches the Inghams barman, Adam did his knee ligaments. But unlike Debbie, who it turns out was really just faking her injury, Adam is temporarily returning to the UK for treatment but hopes to return in a few weeks to finish out the season.

Punter of the week
One of the great things about doing a season, apart from getting to play in the alps for 5 months is the meeting of so many different people. The workers who are here all season and the punters who come and go. This week I had the pleasure to meet an interesting middle eastern gentleman by the name of Tal who brought TJ's to a standstill as he demonstrated, one of his many talents, his Elvis impersonations. Thank you very much!
