Hard-packed old snow with all this wind-blown stuff being dumped at the moment (and it's still coming down) might make it a bit iffy higher up tomorrow, but it should be bliss on the tree-lined slopes lower down. I'm heading for Villaroger at 1200m (Les Arcs domain) first thing.... I was staying in Villaroger the week before Christmas, waited for the lifts to open for the first time for the season after the dump of 18th/19th Dec - it was wonderful. The hordes from Les Arcs could not get over easily as Lanchettes was closed, so we had untracked powder - it doesn't get any better than that. Now I am jealous sitting here in Blighty waiting for half term. Clive |

But not all night and every night - the Erdinger is not bad but we get sod-all variety here. But it's Heathrow next week then Essen the week afterwards, then Finland in mid-February. I'll not pass comment on the liquid refreshment at Dayton Ohio (May 2005) until I return :-) BTW it's snowing now, we're preparing the piste for your late-season visit, and BoBo says 'Hello'. -- Simon Brown www.hb9drv.ch |

Still, at least I've got some bottled stuff at home; couple of cases of Theakston's OP, some Pedigree[1], newky brown and a few other assorted strong ales. Most of 'em are past there bbd, mind, but still drinking quite well.
