Also, caron, thanks for the Obergugl, but at New Year, it is very expensive. This looks like £10-£14 a run, (for me,) there is no calculation for the beginners.

I find that surprising, I was there last week and it was busy with a single room, b+b costing 50 euro a night, selected at random by the tourist office for me. It's easy to get there, easyjet to Innsbruck, train to Landeck-Zams and the postbus up the hill.

....and ****ing expensive too.

Oh good, it keeps out the riff-raff :D

if only :D only the odd drag lift seems to keep away the riff-raff

Obergurgl's no more expensive than anywhere else in Austria of course, I can't speak for what some UK tour operator charges obviously.

so that's where the suntan lotion brand presumably got it name from.

ironically yes, we had a few laughs about that at the time :lol:

you'll particularly not want to look next week then :thumbup: I have "plans" for the weekend although it's going to take three days to ski there and the weather's looking a handful again :roll:

Jimmy Cliff ?
