HELP!

The world famous 'Austria Oh' series of holidays has a large and scattered following and set of contributors, none more so eccentric than the McNally clan, the most talented musical family to hit the Austrian slopes since the Von Trapps. In a highly anticipated visit to Embach in the Pinzgau region of Salzburgerland, this Fab Family put on an interpretive display of The Beatles classic album cover Help, much to the delight of local onlookers.

Rumoured to be so sustainable she leaves no indentations in the snow behind her, let alone carbon footprints, Eimear McNally told this blog that the recreation of the Help album cover was literally and figuratively a cry for help in controlling greenhouse gasses and the well known link to the shrinking of alpine glaciers.

"If we don't stop this process right now there will be no 'ticket to ride' up the lifts for the skiers of tomorrow," she said in a desperate plea to snow enthusiasts the world over.

"If the glaciers keep melting at this rate for another few years we'll all be living in 'yellow submarines' if we're not careful," chipped in Kevin McNally whilst stroking his beard and looking wise.

Fellow interpretive ski prancer, Aoife, was not convinced at the impact the location of the display was having and encouraged them to disrupt village life saying, "Why don't we do it in the Road?" but the others disagreed and argued that if this smaller scale debut demonstration was a success they would like to carry it on 'Across the Universe.'

The whole event was greatly received and widely considered to be a huge success, certainly a show that those present will never forget.
