Porcelain and ski boots don't mix well. But don't let that put you off.

One reason why I always tried to avoid france. There were plenty of them in Serre Che too.

I admit it is not an ideal place for concentration, but as long as you're not trying to read a newspaper, it's Ok :shock:

There's a little project for you and your wife, next ski holiday - find out how far you can go apart with these cans and the string and still be able to hear down it :lol:

I have chosen these resorts for mainly childcare due to my son being 4yrs old and we want him in whizz kids where they drop off and pick up from ski school. Both hotels are crystal club hotels and very near to slopes.

Never really fancied either of these resorts, so I better not comment :shock:

smashing photos Sal :wink:

I think the cans do work, but only if you have a piece of string between them, and keep it pulled tight - obviously won't be able to do that over 3 Km :lol:

Why would it not work in the mountains, as long as you had enough string :D
