webcams, lots of webcams, although I do appreciate that this is limited by the number of webcams in resort. I also find looking at photos of people who have visited before quite useful as it shows you more than the typical TO shots.

IMO stick with the classes for another year at least, once you get comfortable with parallel turns on reds you can then dip in and out of lessons as you feel the need to tweak your technique. Having said all that I know people who have been skiing 20 odd years and still take lessons for the whole week, they are good skiers and always placed in the top level class but they like the social side of things.

He flies into Heathrow, and after stepping off the plane realises just how warm England is compared to his home."Ooh, hot day, hot day" he mumbles shuffling to baggage collection and putting £2 into the vending machine for a couple of freezing cold bottles of water.
Unsure of public transport, he hires a car. The sales person makes sure he has got air conditioning and AA cover just in case. Off he trots to the car pick up area. "Ooh very hot very hot" and sweat starts to pour off his brow.
He finally locates his car, gets in and cranks the air con as low as possible. "Aah, hot day, hot day".
He finds his way onto the M4 and heads into town, only for the car to start spluttering and grind to a halt. Now he is really sweating. Luckily, he has got AA cover, so he gives them a ring on his penguin mobile, but its too hot sitting in the car, so he starts walking towards an ice cream van parked at Heston services. "Hot day hot day, very hot very hot".
"What can I get you sir?" says the ice cream man.
"99, very hot. No flake, hot day."
And the ice cream man hands him a super size cornet with lovely cold vanilla ice cream. Penguin dabs the ice cream all over his face to cool down, and waddles back to the car, only to find the AA man already under the bonnet.
"Ooh hot day hot day" says Penguin as the AA man turns round to tell him "I think I've found the problem sir" looking at Penguin with ice cream all over his face. "It looks like you've blown a seal......."
