Hardly any wind in Norfolk

You should be on the reds by the end of the first week.

Is it the red, silver with a bit of black at the back, if it is thats my favorite jacket

Bellavista produce the best pizza's I have ever tasted, I love the place so much I was there in the summer, you must visit Bar Agata in Saroch for a real local experience, loverly people.

I do not want to disappoint but I only found covered lifts not heated, unless they have been added post March 2008.

hi, i have just booked a holiday to passo tonale for 2 adults and 2 children age 11 and 6. we plan to just mess around the nursery slopes for the first few days as the 6 year old in not to keen on skiing. do we need a lift pass for the nursery slopes if so is there a local pass or a points pass system available .thanks mary

I went to passo Tonale last year it is a good resort for beginners but you will need a lift pass for the nursery slopes, but remember as in most Italian resorts children under 8 ski free which is a great attraction to families,
the slopes are fairly easy but be careful of the easy run to Ponte Legno as there is a steep section near the end.
Overall a cheap not a pretty resort but the locals are friendly as the resort is 2000 + meters high it can be very cold and at times foggy as we found last year, we packed up skiing early on the last day because of the thick fog.
We went independently and found the standard of hotel and hotel food very good, we would not normally stay half board but found the standard very good. Any other information send me an email or check out the local website, have a great holiday.
