If there's any admins watching this, can someone let us know if theres a problem with Andorra at the moment? The snow report hasn't updated since Thursday and other sites seem to be indicating no snow for the week now :( can you confirm??

WooHoo!! :D:D:D this time sunday we'll be on our way to the hotel :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

well we're having to hope and pary as we can't change ours.. there's a group of 20+ going from all over the UK so we're stuck with Andorra. Ah well we'll have a good time no matter what and some people that have already been (and are currently there) have said the conditions aren't that bad and there's a enough open to enjoy yourself on.

Can someone blow the snow in the direction of Andorra please? would be most grateful :D

Can anyone tell me what the conditions are like in March? I'm thinking of goin to Austria in March 07 for my 2nd hol (going to Andorra in Jan) and am wondering how good the conditions normally are.

Hi - not sure on the EU bit but be careful when getting lev's especially if you do it out there. Make sure you get the advertised rate! Quite often they will advertise a rate of 2.8 for instance, but when you get your currency it's been done at a lower rate - we found they swap the buy/sell rates over i.e. buy 2.1/sell 2.8 is actually buy 2.8/sell 2.1.... Apart from that I couldn't see much difference between the rate in the UK and out there so you may be better off buying in the UK to be safe.

not sure on conditions right now, but I went for my first time this year (March) and had a fantastic time as it snowed the whole week which meant i had fresh powder to face plant in :D

Make sure you visit a bar called Titanic, when you're in there have a look around for a couple called Bob & Caroline... you can't miss them trust me.... (in case you do, bob will be the short bloke with the mohican and his wife will be the exceptionally loud drunken one trying to get everyone dancing on the tables)

yep getting worried here too.... off to Soldeu on 7th Jan and forecast so far is no snow for the next week :( lets hope it changes in the new year and the snow gods dump on Andorra in time for our arrival...

Cals - where abouts are you going in Andorra?

If anyone has just returned from Andorra can you let us know what the conditions are like....
