They should definitely be held accountable, I just think people don't know, they go skiing once a year and thats that, I still think etiquette should be taught in ski school, although ise has said that it is, it wasn't when I was first taught.


How many weeks of lessons did you take?


I'm adding up, about six weeks if memory serves


that ought to have been enough time for it to come up :D

I'm just a bit conscious that some of the people who complain this should be covered in lessons only stuck it for a week which isn't long enough for this to be covered.

I have found a very good website, www.seat61.com for working out train routes across international boundaries.

If you send me a pm telling me where you want to go, I'll have a look for you,

I've seen that before. The problem really is one of cost as much as anything. I've an event I need to go to next week for example, this will cost :

EasyJet RTN = chf 74.47
Swiss Rail to and from airport = chf 68
UK Rail from event to parents house return = £11 (18 chf)

So, 160 chf return all in. The rail fares aren't even close. Some of the things I need to go to are work related and the rail fare would make it uneconomic, particularly given the current exchange rate.

They do, one of the problems is that the slopes are full of people who've had one week of lessons and decided they've nothing left to learn and now think themselves intermediates as they can get enough speed up to really hurt someone.
