Arnie Wilson, Ski Journalist (Bonus Episode #27)

In this episode Iain speaks with Arnie Wilson, one of the UK's most respected and experienced ski journalists.

Arnie has visited over 740 ski resorts in 30 countries, and is perhaps most famous for his exploits in 1994, when he and the late Lucy Dicker skied on every single day of that calendar year.

This phenomenal achievement, which included 240 ski resorts in 13 countries, was recognised in the 'Guinness Book of World Records'.

Arnie was the ski correspondent for the Financial Times for 15 years and also edited 'Ski+Board', the Ski Club of Great Britain’s magazine for 12 years.

I thoroughly enjoyed my chat with Arnie and I'm sure you will too.
