Mel, also abroad with daughter, did some skiing? (8)

I believe the answer is:

slalomed

'did some skiing?' is the definition.
(slaloming is a type of skiing)

'mel also abroad with daughter' is the wordplay.
'abroad with' is an anagram indicator (abroad can mean moving around).
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'mel'+'also'='melalso'
'melalso' with its letters anagrammed with 'd' makes 'SLALOMED'.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
