Hi Caron, I can relate to you in that issue, I play bass in some bands and spend some time learning songs, gigging and practicing, I also post alot on a bass players forum, and we also have meetings to get to know everyone. My other half thinks I spend too much time with bass and music in general.

I've tried to explain to her that music is what keeps me from killing someone after a 9-5 job, and it helps me to stay way from drugs :mrgreen:.
In all seriousness, try to explain how it makes you feel when you have some minutes on your own just posting and reading about your favourite sport. And how important it is to your life. As long as you don't disreguard all the other things in life and are able to keep a healthy balance, I think your best half should understand.

Ok enough rambling, just take him with you skiing of piste and leave him there.... :D

alpe d'huez

I've checked a school in Alpe D'huez and it seems like the lessons are only two hours a day, from 10 to 12, i don't know why i thought the lessons would be the whole day.

Can you please advise me of a good school in there?

Yeah I think that's great advice

I don't care much for having lunch, we will probably take something to eat with us on a back pack.

and as dinner goes i'm from Portugal so I usually dine later than everyone else, so hopefully the restaurants won't be full up, and i have my 4 course meal at the chalet paid for already.

oh you serious Tony?

Doh, it was suppose to be a romantic holiday not a screaming contest. :(

I'm going to Alpe D'Huez in April. It's such a long way to go.

I just noticed that i've booked my first skiing trip on easter weekend, there's some good things with that, we get to pack up everything on good friday and leave early with a good night's sleep, and we don't need to use as many holidays because of the bank holiday monday. Bonus points :D

But now i'm concerned that we will find the resort completly packed. is that a possibility? :roll:
