Cem is quite right sunday night in Jacks is toss the boss night throw a higher number than the boss free round of drinks, The Ronnie (rond point) happy hour from 16.00hrs Meribar happy hour from 15.45hrs further up the street Le Pub next to tourist office and opposite is the Taverne on way out of town The den above Dicks T bar Friday night is cheese night 70s 80s music dont get there much before 23.00hrs 10 euro entry to dicks unless you go from the den, can recommend refuge and petit oignions for meal out on staff night off although petit oignions is up at 1600 and a taxi will cost 10euro each way
All the happy hour bars offer pitchers of beer by far the cheapest way to buy !
Who wears a helmet?

Never ever worn a helmet, hopefully leaving today to Meribel with brand new helmet is bag, same trip last year one of the guys took a fall lost his memorey for about 3/4 hours, I was skiing at xmas with GPS for the first time realised skiing in excess of 50mph, this made me think !
But it is a preference

There is a bus from Samoens to Morillon to Taninges, Not sure it goes as far as Les Carroz and Flaine this bus is for the Cascades run from Flaine down to Sixt fer Cheval there may be other buses which run from Les Carroz to Flaine but not sure the bus timetable used to be printed on the piste map but have not used piste map for a number of years
I am fairly sure there is a bus which is not included in lift pass but no idea of timetable as you are warned if you miss last ski bus from Cascades you have to pay for next bus !

I know the one in Cluses !

You could ask the transfer coach to stop while you do a bit of shopping, the 1996 Mercury is very good

Tesco (other supermarkets are available) currys you will def have microwave and pre cooked Tilda rice

Dont forget flying into Geneva Duty free ish
