You have to catch a flight to ski on snow.
A few beers or glasses of wine are fine but do you really want to die from a hangover on the slopes?


Well Gareth I never suffer with a hangover this was the reason for the forum question, but when you ski in some of the groups I do then I am afraid a drink is part and parcel of our trip.

I always catch the first chairlift BRIGHT EYED AND BUSHY TAILED.

For me I start at the airport normally 3 to 4 bottles of Holsten Pils, then about 4 Bloody Mary`s on the plane if I can get enough service.( I also take 2 litre bottles of gin in my case/boots)p/pn per case.
Although I dont drink in the day during skiing my apre`s starts around 4pm that day,
EXAMPLE:

4pm - 7pm apre`s bar =16 units )
back to hotel shower etc,

7.30pm - 9pm half bottle gin =20 units :lol:

9pm - 10.30 Dinner bottle red wine (for Myself) =9 units :P

10.30 - 12pm bar or town =8 units :mrgreen: :!:

Given that the recommended amount per week is 21 units for a male & 14 units for a female and the maximum amount to drink and drive is 2.5 pints of 3.5abv% or 5 units.

There must be an awful amount of skiers out there in the mornings drunk in charge of their planks. :shock:



If I may be as bold as to suggest that you appear to have a problem.....


I can ski in a straight line in the mornings :oops:
