I thought it was lack of imagination
Yours or theirs. :roll:
You got sun stroke again
Good question Ian. When I lived in Niederau, every run had names. Went to live in Australia for a couple of years. and when I came back, the runs were marked with numbers. Tokk me two seasons to stop getting lost!
Of course, runs with names are not usually board marked, as are run numbers.
And then, names don't always translate too well. My favourite European run is called "The Fairy Dell".
You go first, Ian. :D :D

Not always true Ian. Mind you the same could be said of Switzerland, but not every resort. I think its a local thing rather than national.

Hi Sue.
Only been twice to Zell am See. The first time was two years ago for New Year and we had a great time and I fell in love with the place. I know about the Schmitten webcam (watch it most days)and do you know Crazy Daisy also has a live webcam. I was spotted by someone at home who knew we were there ordering a drink from the bar - scary :roll:
