Now - i know I'm not going on this trip, but........
If you have any tesco clubcard vouchers kicking around you can use them to pay for the tunnel.
Worth x3 the value of the voucher.

Contacts are the way to go definitely, but sme people really cannot wear them.

I dropped it into a conversation at the weekend :)

And everyone craned their necks to see who dropped the gaffe, calling a caraffe a giraffe?
I bet they had a good laff.

My attempt at a joke is so naff :oops:

Personally, no.
But I am not a techie person and mobile phones on holiday are only useful for keeping in touch so only ever use if absolutely necessary.

It might be a great idea, but I could never seeing it improving my snow sports experience!
Good luck however.

Hi,
About a week before we were due to go skiing at the beginning of April my son developed small ulcers on his eyes.
The optician was concerned he wouldn't be able to wear his contact lenses so we purchased some goggle inserts. They cost £35.00 and were not any particular make and looked like this -

He wasn't massively keen on wearing them but I think that once you are skiing people aren't going to notice them behind the goggles.
And if they're comfortable who cares?

He only needed to wear the once as 2 days before we went the optician said his eyes had healed and he could wear his lenses.
On the day he did use them though he found them to stay unfogged and comfortable
For us it was an affordable solution to OTG goggles which my brother wore and covered half of his face.
He didn't have any problems with fogging either though.

Much not help maybe, but I'm sure there are others who have a bit more to contribute.
Good luck.
Sorry if this isn't much use to yu

Have a fantqstic time.
Is this a last minute bookng?
Very envious of all that lovely fresh snow, hope the visibility is good for you though.
:mrgreen:

Could you have a lesson?

If you are doing anything wrong an instructor should be able to help you out.

Yes, last year was pants wasn't it.
It's a good thing we don't all converge the same week!

You are lucky to be able to go when the snow is good, rather than have to plan ages in advance.
Ah well, kids growing up. We used to go twice a season. One short break Jan/Feb. Week at Easter .
Feb half term is too much a bun fight for me. Just too many people about.
