No from me too, but a member of my sister's group had wallet nicked last week in Les Contamines....
From a mountain restaurant.

Others left theirs in apartment all week, no problems.

After this message was posted I emailed the owner of the apartment I am renting (privately) asking him how he expected the apartment left.
I got this reply :

If you leave it presentable, that fine. ie. Make sure dishes are clean and put away and it's not such a mess that it would take the cleaners hours to handle. They will vacuum, mop the floors, clean the bathroom, kitchen etc as you would expect and take away the laundry. If anything gets broken it's usually best to let the cleaners or me know straight away so that there's no arguments later.

I thought that was great as some places expect a real going over, which is hard when you have a days travelling ahead and need to get off.
...of course, I've paid for the cleaning in the price. We were inspected in Puy St Vincent and were not allowed to leave til it was checked. We had to leave it vacuumed and mopped....

Holiday? :(

Tell me about it, I just had dinner at my mothers :shock:

That's funny........

Wow!
I've been there, (if this is the bit where you've just come off the gondola) but it wasn't like that!
It was early April, 2 years ago, chucking it down with snow and a strong wind to contend with too. We didn't hang about!

That looks cold too, but much brighter.

Betty,
Can I ask you something...?
Do you wear impact shorts when boarding - how essential do you think they are?
We got the wrist guards for our 14 yo, but not sure about the shorts yet....

Should this have been a pm? Please be gentle with me for my 1st wander off topic....

(And it's not me who's gone to the dark side ) )

I fear the snow may be a tad softer when we get there :cry: but, what the hell, I'm going to enjoy it.
Does anyone know if there's a bar that plays football in Arabba? Please don't judge me but there's a rather important match next wednesday that can't be missed :oops:

Don't know about the footie, but there is snow forecast for next week, which is good news....

Why on earth has this post been two starred? It certainly does not warrant that. Glad you had a good day

It weren't me who starred it...but I think there is a chance that some people get comments from the person who opened this thread if they talk about personal subjects or go off thread.

Can you repeat that in English please?

I understood it....

PB is making the point that you are quick to point out when someone else goes off topic...
Not that there was much of a topic wen the starring began of course...

Is a numpty a beginner? It is where I come from.

So, helmet or not, it is clear whether you are just starting out or not.

What's the matter with being a numpty anyway? We all gotta start somewhere.

(ps I look like I am on day release in mine so Tony right in my case) ) )

Just thought I'd add - up to the individual in my opinion. I don't care if others wear them or not I just decided I would.
