Ski & boot hire

So glad you're not going the on-line route :-) . Make sure you do Swingbeep's shell test with each pair you try and be prepared to leave the shop without buying if you are not 100% happy with the fit. Spending £50 to hire a pair in resort is a better result than being lumbered with a badly fitting pair. :thumbup:
I'm surprised nobody has replied to this one. It must have sneaked past as I was getting ready for my SkiWelt trip and then dropped off the front pages before I got back.

I haven't skied on either personally. I see that they both get great reviews. I had hoped to demo the Preachers in Tignes in December, but every man and his dog had the same idea and I never got the chance. I suppose that is a recommendation in itself! I only heard positive comments from the people who did try them. Quite a few people were seriously talking about buying them and quite a few more had already done so. I don't think you'd go far wrong with either of them. Sorry not to have been of more assistance.
Celebrities in your hotel?

Bit obscure this one. Mrs Gaz went to Serre Chevalier with a friend, while I looked after her children may I add :evil: , and spent the week skiing with a group which included Carl Green (Herman's Hermits). Who? -)

Probably doesn't count as a 'celeb'. Don't think they had 'been invented' when the Hermits were in their heyday. :-)
