Tip of the cap to 51-year-old bricklayer Mick Daffern who decided to get a laugh out his neighbors after a fresh coat of snow covered the streets of his hometown Wolverhampton. Daffern is a diehard skier but the pandemic put a wrench in his yearly ski trip plans so he was keen to make a few local pow slashes:
“I’ve skied for the last 20 years and this is my first year of no skiing so I could hear some banging in the loft, I went to have a look and it was the skis dancing about. I usually go anywhere where there is snow, the pandemic turned it into a no go. Without a doubt, I would have been on holiday drinking, laughing, eating and having a good time. When I saw the snow today it was a no-brainer, all I needed was a couple of inches on the ground.”
Cheers to a dude who thinks it’s a no brainer to celebrate fresh snow by throwing on an aviator hat and undies and skiing the neighborhood. Good man.
