Re: The Skiing Thread
Haven't been for ages, but have done
Val d'Isère - best skiing I've ever done, v expensive, but high enough to usually ensure good snow Le Duex Alpes - great, but not the best snow when I went, good food, expensive Bulgaria - great, good snow, cheap & good for beginers Romania- ultra cheap, good snow, good for beginers, bad food, Italy - poor snow the year I went, great food Andorra, cheap, poor snow, good food Former Yugoslavia - cheap, good food, war broke out as we left

Re: The Skiing Thread
We went to Sauze last year (well, this year but you know what I mean) and loved it, there was tonnes of snow, all the runs were open etc.. brilliant!

Re: The Skiing Thread
Yes we had a run of bad winters, with poor snow, just the way it goes sometimes, still managed to ski, but icy in parts

Re: The Skiing Thread
Something I've never done, skiing. Always involved a tea tray or a motor
Am I just being a wuss or cheapskate?
