You should buy something like this which has a split level design - boots in the bottom section and clothes in the top. It's a roller so you won't feel the weight as much as a rucksack! :D

.....you find yourself looking at the only estate agents in the resort, just dreaming that one day you may be able to buy a property over there!

.....you haven't had to shout at someone for pushing in the lift queue!

.....it is wall to wall sunshine for the week and you escape having not had any big falls! :D

Feel free to add!! :)

Roger,

He is another video of Le Tunnel. Not my video, but this was taken in March 11. The narrow start can be avoided when there is more snow by dropping in well before then.

I hope you get to ski it one day, it is a nice run (well i think so anyway!!) :D

The hardest section is pushing on the flat in the tunnel! )

On a serious note though, it is pretty tough. I have skied it a few times over the last 3 years with varying snow conditions. Each season the "recommended" route is different. Last year it was a narrow steep ski after the intial mogul section, the year before you could ski the whole top section from one side to the another and before you knew it you were down!

It is a good challenge and I would recommend people just have a go and commit straightaway! :D

Well done on the prizes! :D
I take it now as a show of good faith and as you already have one, you will be letting the Ipad go at a cheap price?? :lol:
