Ian, glad I am not the only one who does the romance thing. Mine has been cup of coffee in bed with card, bag of LUSH smellies and a new limited edition EEYORE (icollect them). A long walk along the beach, hot chocolate and sticky bun in beach cafe. Then home and ordered to pamper myself with all the new smellies, afternoon kip :wink: Now for dinner it will be bottle of fizz,pate and mixed salad, then salmon, new potatoes, asparagus baby carrots, then home made Tirumusu. Lovely day, lovely husband.

No way Rose :shock:

Many years ago I resolved this issue in our household. I go without him :D

Its not that he does'nt want ski holidays, he loves them too. But we hope to be buying a property, partly as rental/investment but mainly for a place to retire too. So all funds will be put into that if its a viable idea.

It's a fine idea, if it's a place you want for your retirement :thumbup: I think you should ringfence some skiing money tho!

Where are you thinking of buying a place?

If any-one had asked us say two years ago it would have been Austria, but now the plan is to retire to Greece. Hence back to Kefalonia in June. It could be a villa but looking into large plot of land/small holding that could have a modest property built on it. We have done quite a lot of research.

You know what benny that has been on my agenda for years and I have never got round to it 8)

Wickers in lycra doing yoga............well there's a picture for us )

There's nothing wrong with Lycra, in fact I'm sitting here now in front of the computer in my all in one Lycra suit ,,,,,,,,, MMMMmmmmm :wink:

OMG my computers just crashed :lol:

Hi, Seefeld is one of my favourite places, have been 5 times, absolutely love it. Its probably because I go early Jan that the slopes are so peaceful and no lift queues. If there is any-thing specific you would like to know just ask and I will try my best to answer. Where were you thinking of staying?

Rose I always new you had class :wink:

Have just re-read what I typed, I dont mean unless I knew every-one in the cabin I could break wind :oops: I meant that I just could not do a chalet holiday. Just to make things clear :lol:
