My glass is half full tonight :D

100% with you :D

I think anyone could get caught during the early years of their skiing as I found out to my cost in Niederau :shock:. Piste maps are eratic and it's why places like St Anton should be avoided until you're confident. Saying that, the same could be said about Val D'Isere but maybe to a lesser extent?

First and foremost, as has been said, learn to skid. It's absolutely invaluable :thumbup:

My fitness has been sadly neglected over the last few weeks :cry:. I've tried to squeeze in the odd bit of yoga here and there but don't feel I've put my heart and soul into it. As of today I'm going for it, not only do I have to get into a dress for my sister's wedding on christmas eve (and a very tight pair of jeans on friday night!) but I've only got 19 days to go.................... :P

I stayed in 1800, it's a good base. Don't go expecting mad wildlife but there are a couple of great lively bars and some fab restaurants.
Enjoy :thumbup:

edit: the bowling alley is the best I've ever been to. Lovely blue lighting, table service and great music.

(apologies to regulars who've heard me say this a million times...)

Obergurgl/Hochgurgl ticks every box there.

90 mins from Innsbruck
Lovely hotels with bars and restaurants (and a club or two if you get the urge!)
Highest resort in Austria, open late into the season
all cruisy blues and reds

I'd highly recommend it.

The only negative is that it's not a mega resort so wouldn't suit you if you like to ski a different run each time.

Great suggestions, thanks guys. Your pics did look fab sued, thanks for that :thumbup:
I'm supposed to be putting the christmas tree up tonight but I think I may be surfing instead :mrgreen:
