I bought an Audi TT as well today.


Good luck with the new skis and the car. Mk.1 or 2?

Don't know about toughest in the world but the back bowls at Lake Louise are pretty awesome...

Scared myself a couple of times

Skied everything but ER5 which has never been open (lower ER5 is just kinda meadow skipping terrain and not totally worth a mention) and Big 7 for no other reason that I didn't really know it was there between a load of the other Wall runs and ER6.

Whitehorn...

Looking to go away mid Dec or the last week in Jan, preferably to North America, not so keen on a Euro resort.

Cheers.

Take my advice and invest in a hardcase for them.


Yeh, I watched my soft bag with more than 2 grands worth of kit being vaulted from the cart on to the carousel at Chambery, I nearly cried.

I would very much like to try ski-ing in Scotland, but it is just so difficult for me to get there. It's probably just as hard for me to get there as to get to France.

Lets not start that debate :lol: It has been done to death.

Anyone actually thinking about going?

I think we should get this back on to Scotland, is anyone going to try and get some Scottish snow if they are passing this year? Tony H, do you plan to be up this way again?
