Charlie Journeaux - He's On The Piste

Wondering what Charlie Journeaux is up to? Well, he's recently finished doing up a chalet in the French Alps, which is now available for weekly hire.

The chalet business, run by Charlie's partner, Rosie, is called Boutique Ski, which, if you say it really quickly, sounds like a Russian retail outlet.

Find out more by clicking on the following link

Boutique Ski

and, of course, if you go and stay there, let us know what the delicious-sounding food is like! Yum...

And check out the actual name of the domicile -- Chalet Orgueil. Ahhh yes, eh?

Talking of the Marathon Man



Our intrepid hero circa 1984 at the last supper for Rog's Goldsmiths' crew - from L-R: Al McGregor, Ray Le Maistre, Madeleine Keehner, Anna Green, Roger Bartley, Pete Kilcoyne, and the man about to put 26 miles 385 yards into his legs, a big round for Adam Newey

Marathon Man

Remember Adam Newey? Well, he is JerseyDayz's official Marathon Man for 2007.

But that doesn't mean he's gonna drill through your front teeth...

Adam is actually running the London Marathon -- and you can help him raise money for Diabetes UK by visiting

his Just Giving page

and opening your purse strings.

How do I know this? Adam sent an email that somehow managed to get past my spam filter, despite having the subject line "Give me all your money."

He's still a charmer, as you can tell....
