Thanks Tony that's grand. Ischgl was on the list too :D

Nope, we're not too bothered about mega resorts! And Obergurgl is on the list thank you!

Heh Pablo I was expecting you to say Glenshee )

Up in Glasgow next week so hoping for the offchance of some snow!!

We're off for a week in January, and as I missed out last season (we were going to go to BC for a couple of weeks, but husband made me go to Vegas and marry him instead, damn him) I quite fancy trying to get a late season week somewhere else - I'm thinking late March or April, after the school holidays.

We can fly easily to Geneva, Innsbruck and Grenoble.

We have an experienced boarder and a wimpy skier (me) - I'm a nice wide red run cruiser!

Ideally not France, I fancy somewhere different this time, and we're going to France in January

Probably needs to be high

Preferably no more than 60-90 mins transfer

Some nice bars and restaurants, I'm too old for wild nightlife.... :lol:

Any suggestions would be very welcome to get me started. I need to start planning now so I have something to look forward to the minute I step off the plane home in January!

Well I'm delighted to learn that in spite of gaining weight over the past couple of years I'm not so much of a porker that my DIN setting has to change.

I can eat a few more pies over Christmas.... :lol:

Yep, I'm with you! I'll jump on the fist thing available to get me back up...chair, gondola, husband...

I'll never forget the moment when my then 7 year old made me ski a moguly black in 2008. He rolled his eyes at me....what could I do?!

If it makes you feel any better, I have 2 exams on Tuesday, which I should be revising for. Pensions & Investments. I want to hack my head off.
