I've got 3 hols booked, two DIY and one TO. I have done both in the past and I will say that TO hoildays are far less stressfull and because there are so many good deals about at the moment it seems to be the cheaper option. Especially if you get lift passes included and or you are choosing a resort with long/akward transfers.

I'm off on the 26th... :D :D :D

I think I need a bucket! :hunf:

I am trying to decide whether it's better value to get a 7 day Courchevel valley pass for 216 euros and then top up for a day to the 3 V one (22.5 euros) or get the full 7 day 3V one at 267 Euros. It is horribly expensive :shock: :shock:

Esf says we should be okay with the cheaper one for the lessons, but it would be very embarassing if we got stuck somewhere at a lift in a lesson because we had the wrong pass :oops: And if we need the 3 V one for more than 2 days it works out cheaper to buy the full pass for the 7 days.

The pound has recovered a couple of percent against the euro recently, so it might be a good time to buy lift passes. On the other hand, it might recover a bit more ...

I have just paid the outstanding balance on our accommodation in euros. All that is left to pay are the lift passes (for 3 of us).

I did all the equations and ended up getting three 3 valley's passes for us and a ski lesson/lift pass package for the beginner. The beginner will have a very limited area but we figured that after a few days if she is able and confident to venture further she can get half day passes for Les Men or St Martin or 3V depending on how we fell on the day.

I'm just off to the ski shop to pick up my babies...They'll be all shiney and new!

I've got to be strong and resist spending money...got to think of the gluhwein! :lol:

It was sticking in the garden, but now it's stopped. :cry:

Just had to bit the bullet and fork out for 4 myself...I spent weeks looking and hoping for some kind of discount to no avail. :cry:

Hope you have your Skis waxed and ready to go.

It has also just started snowing here in Bromley (SE London), but looks very light and I doubt it will last long :cry:

I'm SE London...Apparently it's quite heavy in Wimbledon!
