You maybe might want to change the colours on the clock as I can't read it that well :evil:


It's my countdown, and it is set up to display nicely on my screen resolution thank you. :mrgreen:


I thought being on your signature line you might want people to view your countdown site, O well :lol:

Wickers !
You may well see the countdown better if you roll up your bobble hat?

Anyone have any idea of the snow history for Scheffau at xmas? Went two years ago and there was plenty of good skiing
Carol

Schefau for the Xmas week ...
Two key records - number of lifts open and runs to resort ...
2010 (last year) - 13/16 (13 out of 16 lifts open) and good runs to resort
2009 - 12/14 and closed
2008 - 11/14 and fresh snow
2007 - 9/14 and packed
2006 - 7/14 and closed
2005 - 10/14 and fresh snow

These are for dates a few days before Xmas (18/19/20 Dec).
So ...
Skiing possible in Schefau every Xmas for the last 6 years but runs back to resort closed in 2/6 years.
Hope this helps.

When would it be appropriate to panic?
Just like to know as a good, professional, panic needs some planning and diarising to fit in the schedule :lol:

Yes it is - you can see the Altiport runway quite clearly.

Skiing at the end of the Season

Have a look at Tignes/Val D'Isere.
End of season got to be high up.
I think that Espace Killy is very different to 3V.

Wait till DaveMac turns up !! He had great success with carpet tiles as boot foot beds when a poor and penniless something or other. Or maybe just being a Scot. :lol:
