Nice one Ian, I shall book mark this page.

We'll definitely be doing some research while we're in the area over the winter. Woo hoo!

The first one on the list is one I've had my eye on...I like the look of it very much! That's the kind of thing I'm looking for :thumbup:

Now all I need to do is sell my house! :D

That one is gorgeous, a bit out of my price range but I have seen a few that I could afford so I am definitely going to be looking for a chalet/house in this area during the next year.

I like the area, I don't want to live in a busy ski resort, but do want to be where there is a bit of life. I need to be able to commute to a big city (if absolutely necessary) and Geneva would be about an hour. I would like to be able to access s varied ski area and both the P du S and the Grand Massif are near so this place is ideal.

I am excited!

Each to their own.

Are you talking about Basscamp - 2nd to the 6th April? It's an electronic music festival.

I've never heard of anyone on the line up. But then I'm not to up to date on electronic music!

VT is a great base for 3Vs, plenty of tree lined slopes in Courchevel easily assessable from VT.

Queues? In the Portes du Soleil?.....must have been half term...in which case there are lines all over Europe.

Get on the snow outside school holidays if you can!

It must have been a peak week because I can honestly say that I didn't have any problems with lift queues, apart from a on very few occasions, during the entire season. Believe me I would be moaning about it still if I had.

I didn't have any problems with queues in the 3V's either but i wasn't there very long.
