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

Again they are tackling this one from the wrong angle ...... We all know we should not take our kids out of school ...... the tour companies airlines should be the ones targeted ..... My suggestion don't book any flights or holidays are see if they come down in price, but people wont do it and will still continue to pay over the top prices ...........

Looks in good nick ....

Summer for me Flight to Madrid hire car four and a half hour drive to a Cave house in Andalucia ......

I was more interested in why Ian told these guys to look after their equipment better, when actually we all do the same with our own skis......stop for lunch and plant them in the snow, lean them up in a rack, or lie them on the ground. I've never experienced ski theft anywhere I have been and dont expect to either.

I think you need a sense of humour transplant ..........

Yes, the Chateau Snapzzz was very nice, and despite my preconceptions the jacket spuds were very good!

BUt why is it after 20 (ish) years of life - we still take too much meat for a BBQ. It was a meat fest- I think we all went to bed with the meat sweats. Or was that caused by my head sweating due to sitting outside a pub for 4 hours with no suncream on my balding forehead? :oops:

Come on tell all how did you got there ?, what tent do you have ? -)
