My Ischgl trip was a lads week, it also featured Jessie J lookalikes dancing in a slightly dodgy lappers bar,but that's another story.
Family apres when the kids are 11 & 14 tends to be them going back to the Hotel and getting on there tablets, and me and the mrs have a few beers.
Switzerland = Fortnum Mason
Austria = Waitrose
Italy = Sainsburys
France = Tesco
Andorra = Lidl or Aldi
Bulagaria = Going through the bins at any of the above for the post "best before" chuck away stuff.
Sorry i couldn't resist it.

Pretty much sums up the snobbery inherent in the typical British skier.
Each to their own. Ours (11 & 12) don't have tablets/laptops with them and Me & Mrs don't go for beers. We tend to stop in together for a meal and play Scrabble etc etc. :shock:
But we digress, although it does prove that country comparisons often degenerate into stereo-typing (or worse)- see my page 1 comments :!:

"Family apres when the kids are 11 & 14" - for my 14 year old it was all about scoring drugs and trying to get laid. That's my boy.

A new low; people about their grocery habits and what teenage boys get up to. At least the butler can smile when pouring a nice glass to a plonker.
