But you have not seen the new ones ...... well neither have I anymore they were nicked -)


Well there's more than a 100% chance that the thief will be able to ski with them correctly unlike the rightful owner.....perhaps it was a mercy theft 8)


Brooksy your a harsh man but absolutely correct ....
Next season ......

But there are risks with DIY Ian.

For our summer holidays i always DIY but with winter in the mountains being unpredictable i like the security of a TO. The last thing i want is to be stuck behind a snow blocked road and miss my ryanair/jet2/easyjet flight, if that happens you are on your own. At least with a TO you are guaranteed a return journey without additional expense.


Been DIYing for years never had a problem ... Book a flight, Book an apartment and book a car :)
Agree with most of the comments, same old same old .... not a lot of offers on equipment or deals on holidays and the whole show has been shrinking for a number of tears ... Which is a real shame.
What are the more Northern shows like ???
I can understand both sides ...... I'm not really interested in taking little Wickers skiing in half term re crowds and I refuse to pay the inflated prices, so I shall continue to take her out of school for the foreseeable future as I really do believe it is part of her education ....
Next season ......
