Shouldnt that be shut up yow?

:lol: :lol:

To answer my own question, have just googled the chalet and there seems to be a number of avenues to book it through, so if we want the chalet to ourselves we'll have to book it as a group.

I cant remember how many the chalet could take....

Think it was 11/12 if it's Genepy. I thought you were group leader?

Not sure about how this is going to work with regards to booking it, is it worth contacting them to say we are a group that will fill the chalet but will book individually?

:?:

I wouldn't go off beyond the markers, but as this Valle Blanche is heavily used I wondered if it was easily accessable. Obviously not haha!

I'll have a look at the guides you mentioned Bandit, I'd love to have a go at it, but im going with a group of mixed ability youe see, and I'm not sure they would be up for it.

I have always been lead to believe that the Vallee Blanche was similar to a blue run for most of it, and at 22km long a bit of a leg wobbler.

I'm ashamed to say that I lived in Chamonix for 2 years and never did it :oops:

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:

But as you know it is not.

I am sure that you will confirm that being a bluenose is no Yam Yam.

As for you Skidaddle, apologies for the typo.
Thats because I am a brummie and not well educated like you cambridge wannabes :)

So you're really a Brummie. And I'm really a yam yam coming from Dudley originally. Live down south now though and lost my accent, although it may come out after a few wines.

Tino - I still like to board at least once during my weeks skiing (saying that I didn't last year, probably because I was thrashing my new skis), so you won't be alone (much)

:D

Well, how rude.

But so true :-)

I like the look of the Chalet Genepy. Sounds great, particularly the gallons of wine with dinner.
