I recommend speaking "European" when in Austria, Italy, Portugal, wherever.

The equal measures of bemusement and hilarity created are a joy to behold. :D :D

Just ask Tonyh.

Mayrhofen, for a change, :D

8th - 15th January.

I've been to both resorts and whilst in Zell also skied the glacier at Kaprun.

Zell is o.k for sure - a reasonable amount of skiing and well serviced by buses and lifts. Definitely not extensive though. The glacier can be very bleak and is not at all attractive, but of course has excellent snow.takes a bit of time to get to if you're based in Zell (bus/gondola/another gondola). Zell has a huge amount of nightlife which would be a plus for you.

St. Anton has vast skiing possibilities and also excellent nightlife, but it is expensive. However, that wouldn't prevent me from recommending it, as its one of the "must do at least once" resorts in my opinion.

Hope this helps and enjoy whichever you plump for.

Hey skido spell it right " Wickers"

Apologies.

But, ahem, can you edit "of cause" - it offends me greatly.

Innit.

And what's with "skido?"

George Boyd is already better than Zico ever was, Whickers.

Although it could be said that travelling from Peterborough to Milton Keynes via Scotland is a tad unusual.
