Yep, Kamanga is the one with "mixed" reviews, although it has more spaces.

I have a feeling, and shoot me down in flames for saying this, that a number of those who have expressed an interest at this stage will possibly/probably not end up going for various reasons. Therefore, for those who are in a position to commit (not me at this stage as I have just paid for this seasons 2 trips) maybe they should consider putting a deposit down individually.

I think I will wait and see what deal they offer on lift passes, seeing as Zermatt is the most expensive in Europe I believe.

Genepy looks pleasant enough, and if 12 people commit, anyone else who wants to join up can find another chalet and go for it or make their own plans. IF this ever actually comes off. In principal, it sounds great. However, I bet there are a lot of "other halves" out there who when their partner suggests a week away with a group of people from a website might start to panic, have 2nd thoughts, or call the police :mrgreen:

We have something to go on for starters, and the seed is sewn. Lets keep close to it over the course of this season, and if and when the lift pass deal comes up we can review again and those that can/want to can commit at that time.

Zermatt has always been top of my list.

might even cycle there but, possibly, not back

Me and Mr Nelly cycled to a friends for a cheese a wine evening in the summer, the journey back was extremely wobbly and Mr Nelly fell off his bike into the middle of the road :lol:

Lush or Lushes ??? :lol:

That's a bit rude Wickers :shock:

Don't worry Bandit, he put a :lol: after his comment which, apparently, makes it a "joke"

A few other questions spring to mind....

Do we have a count of interested parties yet?
Am I the only snowboarder?

Have I missed anyone? :D

Snowboarders - don't know

Attractive single ladies - probably none as everyone seems to be in couples

And can't help on the others as have never been on a group trip, haven't seen the weather forecast for 2011 and try the coffee table? Enjoy when you find it )
