After all the other suggestions, I think it would amuse Tony H the most if you were off to Niederau.... :lol:

Wherever it is I hope everyone enjoys it!!!!! :D

No.....never.....that would be too obvious.....

Heres the thing, right. I got a random PM from someone who uses this forum from time to time, telling me to get a life and go skiing somewhere other than Mayrhofen, and yet there is a regular group of people who make what they regard as their rightful pilgrimage to Niederau year on year.

I think it may have been Dave Mac who said, on here a few weeks ago, that everyone has their "favourite" resort, and often one where they return to time and time again, and there is nothing wrong with that, although I personally also would like to visit many other ski areas. But if it works for you, why not?

Anyway, just thought it was a little odd to have someone I dont know telling me to broaden my horizons. I bet they didnt say that to anyone else.

SO.......Dave, let me guess: The Halfwit or whatever its called in Niederau, yes?

I don't see that you liking Mayrhofen is any different to other people liking Niederau.....and don't see why a bit of light-hearted banter about the 2 resorts should be taken so personally!!! :roll: I wouldnt worry though....I think most people know its all a bit of fun!!!

Do you think that would serve any particular purpose?

I would think every-one has their own favourite place and they go year after year. Tony_h loves Mayorhofen, then there's Dave Mac and Niederau, I love Seefeld. I dont see a problem, go with what suits you best.
Its nice to have a change, who knows you might like it better. I am certain next years hols for me will be very different but I shall still return to Seefeld again and again, I love it. Every-one should go where they have the best time regardless of other peoples opinion. I,ll get off me soap box now.
