Well done Wickers! I lost some weight last year along with Mr PSC although we have put some of it back on so need to go back on the diet! Enjoy your meal.

Wickers - are you talking about your good self?
TheoBane - You need to sign up with a club and start to get some FIS competitions under your belt. You will also need lots of money as well as determination. UK comps are usually held on plastic and this wrecks your expensive race skis. Have a look at the Snowsport GB website for lots of info. |

I have been really sad and created a film of today from the livecam 360. There were a few lucky people skiing/boarding up there today see this link http://www.valthorens.com/winter-en/live/livecams--webcams.61.html
5 weeks until we go to St Martin down the road :mrgreen: |

Just under the bridge towards Le Praz on the left hand side there is a cheap outdoor takeaway cafe that does an American (with Chips) for about 6 Euros - not bad in a resort where you can see Champagne on sale for 3000 Euros a bottle :shock: The trick is in Courchevel is not to follow the ESF ski instructors with their clients - they take them to the most expensive places. Avoid anything that overlooks the airstrip - Cartier Diamonds on sale as you walk in is always a giveaway that a place may be a tad expensive....

I don't recall any magic carpets on that slope before just a double drag lift :?:

Does anyone else go green with envy when they read Tino is in Zermatt AGAIN this October for the weekend :mrgreen:
I'm going sailing round Corfu on Sunday so not so green this weekend :D I might be going to Zermatt next year at half term though..... And on topic I have been to Zermatt before (but in Summer camping and it was lovely)I have never been to Verbier. See you in November :lol: |

Enjoy yourselves one and all and make sure you post up some really large photos that those who can't make it like me can look at ) At least Dave Mac will not be accosting women and asking them if they are Paralytic like last New Year in N!!

I have a pair of K2 Tru Loves which I will be disposing of because I find them too heavy - can anyone suggest an alternative that will give me some of the stability at speed but be easier to turn - I ski mainly on piste reds, blues and blacks and follow the kids onto the snowparks and do the green jumps :oops:
