I'm off to Tignes next Friday. Very impressed with the weather that I ordered ) Snowing up to Friday, then maybe some sun! :D

Sort of a cross between a romper suit and biological warfare gear ) :D

Well, probably more like a jacket but anyways, any experience?

I haven't bought from them myself but I know lots of people who have and they seem very well thought of. The Duluth Packs they sell are much used by open canoeists (my summer pastime !) :D

It is true that they only get about five weeks summer vacation, but they also get a two or sometimes three week vacation at the end of fall and spring trimesters (Xmas and Easter). And each trimester has a half term break at the midpoint of at least a week. Overall the kids spend very little more time in school than kids do here in the US with their 12 week summer break.

Different parts of the UK have different length of holidays too.

Here in N. Ireland schools get an 8 week summer break. They get the same number of days overall (I think) as English schools but it's split up differently.

They all get recycled and eventually get watched again when we've forgotten whats on them :D

We even play some Warren Miller from time to time, just in case we forget how skinny those skis were. )

My only problem is I've watched it 10 times a day for weeks so its been retired for a while )

It is indeed a great movie and not a snow board or half pipe in sight :D
