A large vodka + dc might have to precede that chat then!


Blimey your a bit pricey, Mrs W when I first starting dating her used to drink gin and bitter lemon...... after about five years I managed to get her on to half a bitter,a lot cheaper I might add 8)

Skin flint...pot's and kettles spring to mind now Mr 'I won't fly with Ryan Air' Wickham.

I am rather short of money at the moment after embarking recently on a new, equally expensive hobby :wink:


If these companies do not treat me as I expect to be treated I don't use them as in previous postings I'd rather use a more expensive carrier if there is one than use that Irish blokes company..... if you followed suit you to would be treated a lot better than the mugs they think that we are. Now back to X factor :wink:


I've never used Ryan Air and don't intend to either...I might think about it when they change their name to 'Fly Wickers' though. )

The skiing was stop on.

Access from anywhere in Les Menuires is good and there are a few good bars.

Granted the visual appearance of the building could be better - but we went for the skking rather than that.

There are two great runs down from Mont Vallon in the Meribel area of the piste map and also in the far right side too (past Val Thorens) I can remember the name of the resort.

You'll have a blinding time...


Thanks for that C&B, I just want to ski, ski, ski...and I hear that won't be a problem there. The appartment we've booked is ski in/out and as long as there are a few bars and restaurants to choose from then I'm sorted!

I'll try not to look at the ugly buildings, or only look after I have had a few bevvies. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I am Sooooooooooooooooooo excited! :mrgreen:

If anyone has been there I'd be pleased to hear more about it. :lol:


I think you spelt it wrong "Les Manure", only joking..... 8)


Apparently that's how it is pronounced...and the second most commom name for it behind the 'Armpit of the Alps'!

Still 600 km of skiing to choose from though. :mrgreen:

Don't worry, we'll still be coming, just not as early as I had planned. Might have to eat and drink while shopping!
