Morning Maggie :)

I am on this trip. I am 48 and would say I am a decent intermediate. Happy on just about anything which has been pisted, not too bad on some of the natural type runs or runs which are not "too" mogully, but almost no experience off piste.

I am sure Ally (who is arranging the trip) will be along later, but I am pretty sure there are places available in the Chalet at the moment.

Edit. :oops: Sorry Maggie, I should have added a welcome to the forum. I am sure you will love it here and find all sorts of ski related info if you need it.

No mention ( in any form or way ) of skiing or ski related issues from May to September.

:shock: :shock: :cry:

Damn, that must be what I'm doing wrong and why I'm still single. I need to find a lady (or Lady if I want to ski some of those really posh places) who thinks about skiing all year too :twisted:

:D Great news. Chemmy is back on the snow. I quote from her Facebook page..

As expected there was a bit of pain and discomfort with the metal work, but the great news is the faster I went the less I felt my leg wohoo! Not that I went fast as I was under strict instructions on post injury ski rehab!! Can't wait until tomorrow, and the next day and the day after and all the other snowy days that I will have in my life!!

That would be good news OA :D

Aha, but what's it like up at the Schilthorn?

Chinese rebellion or flat pistoned engine?

And the chance to meet/ski with snowcrazychris :twisted:

:shock: Yeah, right. The kids are going to fork out their pocket money to keep refilling that twice a week for their dad :roll:
