Oh yee of little faith !!!
You should be asking for 6/7th so you can get into resort and settled, car unpacked, big shop in place etc etc etc before everything starts to get slippy and tricky.

I would prefer to dump everything in the flat and go skiing, but I guess you're right considering the lifts won't be running. They did, however, open early last year.

Will hazard a guess for fresh snow to be Friday 2nd December, usually starting about 7.00am.

Whilst I agree with most of your wisdom, Dave, I have to take you to task on your fresh snow prediction.
This is clearly a fantasy - are you planning to ski on December 3rd?
First snow is never on a Friday - it is always a Tuesday or Wednesday - this is well documented.
First snow falls from late afternoon, not early morning.
Whilst I would like to say November 29/30th - 6/7th December is more likely at resort level.

Was that from a private seller or a shop clearing stock?

:D :D :D

Anyone else had any good ebay bargains lately?

In an average year, you'd have no problems with the snow...It's at it's peak then. :D

21 days to go...No snow and none forecast! :shock:

I'm feeling quite down about it. Last year was apparently "the worst season in decades" so I was definitely expecting better this year. Everything I've read so far (regarding long range weather predictions fot the Alps)say colder than average and dryer than average...This I interpret to mean not much snow!

:roll:

This is a great site...I think I've found one here!

The fish hats are great!

Happy Anniversary!

I think a double bobble hat would suit Viv for sure...Could be a good stocking filler!
