I took out extra insurance because I knew we were going to be doing more than skiing. Then found out that all the smow mobiling, ice carting etc all had insurance in the price. I get all my insurance through the Pharmaceutical Society as I have to have extensive public liability insurance and they do deals to all members for travel insurance etc.
Toboganning and sleding usually mean the same thing.

Never had a problem, always take a double board bag, with boths boards, 2 pr boots and a few sallo's and jackets. Only pay 1 carriage fee, its never been checked or weighed to my knowledge.
Now my hand luggage thats another matter. Have usually left from Bournemouth, I always have to empty my rucksack and they go through every-thing. This year flew from Gatwick and the only things in my rucksack were, small handbag,hat, gloves and scarf. I got stopped, bag emptied, rucksack and mobile phone swabbed and tested for drugs. So to come back we filled my rucksack with our smelliest socks, they never checked. :lol:

Could he not tell them he had holidays booked? most companies ask that question at interview?

He could of told them, but decided against it as a training and induction course was already booked and he felt that the first person that could comply would have got the job. But no worry we are still on a high from last weeks hols and theres plenty more to be had.

Oooh, poor Rose :shock: ........You are a very supportive partner, and you have earned big points for your sacrifice )

I would have gone without him!

It's a great snow season, and there is loads of time left, so don't sulk, plan :D

I thought about it but it would be no fun without him. Also I would love to persuade my son that Winter hols are good. I am planning already, and with more money coming in who knows how many more hols we can get. :lol:

I have recently seen a dvd of a couple that got married in an ice chapel, some-where in Lapland, looked lovely and so romantic. The honeymoon was their ski holiday. Wish I'd thought of it. Congratulations.

What do i take to wear in the evenings? Skirts Dresses or just jeans with smart tops?

Thanks in advance !

Just jeans and t shirts will be fine. Every-one else does.

Sorry about your bad luck, hope on the mend now. I have said it before but check out Seefeld/Austria.
