"old ground" :twisted:

Good luck!! Take your time, losing a day skiing is better than being on your car roof!

My dad is skiing with me this year.....he is 70

Get them on some planks :)

woop woop! Dont forget the sun cream! The sun will have his hat on...

Jeez, if you read it all you must have had a couple of hours to spare. That thread is a good example of how people are 'passionate' about things

I LOVE THE FORUM :thumbup:

I can see me doing this, putting in tiny turns and then concentrating so much I wipe out on a tiny dimple :roll:

The wind will go, you will have a fab time.....I am totally jealous of anyone skiing in the next 3 weeks

I have to wait 29 sleeps!!

Take some pics and post em up :thumbup:

ACTUAL ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Due to severe weather conditions (heavy snowfall and strong wind) forecast in the next 72hrs, please be aware of the following important information:

1? traffic in the Belleville Valley will be greatly increased during this period, with peak congestion expected between midday on Friday and Saturday evening

2? in these conditions, it is highly likely that avalanche control plans will be put into practice on the road on Friday and Saturday night, which will lead to temporary closure of access routes to the resort

3? we recommend that you avoid any unnecessary journeys during this period and encourage your staff to do the same and to make use of the available car parks. We also strongly urge you to car-share when travelling to our resorts

- Don't forget your snow chains, remember to keep them somewhere accessible, and practise putting them on your vehicle before setting off.

- Equip yourself with warm clothing, an electric lamp, and drinking water.

- In the event of a traffic jam, don't leave your vehicle unless you are asked to by officials or police.
