I have never been lucky with snow north of the border, so the only place I have been able to ski has been the Lecht which was mainly ice and heather. Intermediate Europe beckons, 8)

I have skied the past 4 years in Austria and only got back from Mayrhofen on sunday which is not the cheapest in Austria I have been to. The difference, I was normally paying E 3.20- E 3.80 for a half litre either in the town or on the mountain.
Not to rub it in to much but I had a huge plate full of Vienasnitzel and chips and half litre of lager for E 9.30 on the most expensive mountain bar/restaurant we used. Even with pound being poor against the Euro it still really only reflected London pub prices. Allez Le Austria!!


Drink halfs it would have only been 2.5E. :oops:


No you've lost me there!! Perhaps I confused the issue when I said it was 5 Euros a pint which is near as damn it a half litre!! So if it was E5 a half litre in campsite bar I would suggest it would alot more on the French Alps to buy beer, hence my comparing the prices to Austria.
If of course you just meant drink less and spend the same amount, then I might as well not go out at all and be a right bore and save alot. I am not of course advocating that you need to drink to enjoy yourself, but sometimes it helps. :lol:
[b]Got to go I've got a meeting to catch!!

I have met an awful lot of people who drink who are very boring, so the two do not go hand in hand,and yes I do get confused very easily, it's an age thing you know :wink:
