I went sledding!

Thanks for your post - it sounds like a wonderful time. ?

I haven't gone tobogganing in probably 20 years, at least, but I remember well how fun it was.

CanadianGran that sounds like so much fun. When we had snow here a few years ago we followed some of the local families to a golf course where they were all sledging. They had a ball and we enjoyed watching.

As for me - well I did have fun putting up the decorations today but not as much fun as sledding ?

We used to call it tobogganing when I grew up. Now, in a different part of the country, it is called either sliding or sledding.

Sledding is also used for what I used to call skidooing. Ski-doo is a name brand of snow-mobile, and it is a popular sport for those that like off-road motorized fun. (not me!)

Even here, we have quite a bit of regional language differences.

That sounds wonderful. We also call it sledging.

We used to call it “sledging “ or “tobogganing” if you were posh.

Ah, I assume CanadianGran is in Canada? (No shit Sherlock!)

It’s been a while since I did any and haven’t forgotten the time we ended up in the brambles. Always put aside any housework to take my daughter sledding. Great fun!

Sounds great fun
Wish we had snow here, myDGS would just love it .

Marvellous!

Just reading your post CanadianGran - I was There with you! The wind in my hair as I raced down the hill. Thanks for sharing ?

The beach with my DGS. It was also a quick trip for us, because he decided he was dying of hunger (didn't eat his breakfast) and we had to go home. But there was a bright blue sky and it wasn't freezing. He, of course, was in and out of the rock pools in his wellies. It's very much our happy place, so it was nice to have good enough weather to get down there.
