Tino, you're slipping fella! There's a photo of you in Pab's collection where you're almost smiling :shock:

Were you feeling the ill effects of the booze???

No!! Smiling??? Pabs, get them off the internet, my illusion will be blown.

I really can't ski when I'm hungover so I need to avoid it at all costs. Losing 1/3 of my ski holiday would not be good 8)

hahahaha, 1 word.......RADLER!!!!

You are getting on a bit for those sort of antics )

Hang on a minute, he forced us into a bout of about 7 shots including green vodka, tequila, jagermeister, sambuca,......... then he went home to bed :!:

Here, I have said it before and I will say it again, that NHS direct website is dangerous!! Since I got back I have been exceptionally tired, got a sore throat, sore eyes, sore muscles, bad stomach, a cough and have sneezed a few times.

Aparaently I have a possible case of Pig Cold or New Influenza A (H1N1) as it"s informally known, and must consult my GP or hotline immediately by phone.

Nothing at all to do with 3 days skiing in a t-shirt, no sleep, far too many shots (curtiousy of Pablo and his fascist student drinking techniques), not enough food and too much sun!!

Last time I used that website I had meningitis and was advised to call an ambulance :shock:

Stayed at Plagne 1800 and would recommend Belle Plagne )

Boooooooo!! I don"t use facebook :roll:

I fell asleep last night as soon as I got in from work so could not post pics, and tonight I am gonna watch the footy down the local micro-brewery, so maybe mine will be up for the 2010 season.

There is no way I would book it before October anyway, you need to watch what the weather is doing, if it's an Indian summer I would wait till later.

I think thier booking system is a little screwy personally.

I stayed there the first weekend in October last year and booked only a few days in advance. Lot's of hikers as well as skiers. The story with the Tux is relatively simple these days, if you stay in the village. They have 3 fast serial cable cars to get to the top in about 18 minutes from village, but at that time of year you can only ski the length of the final 2 (sometimes 1). I was very lucky last year and had 80cm of new snow the day I arrived, there was about 40km open, you can do about 1170m of vertical.
