Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hi Guys

Iv'e not read all the thread but have been keeping up with most of what's being going on a had a chat with Steve from Mountain sun a couple of days ago.
The GREAT news for all us snow freaks is that it has been snowing the past few days down to approx 2600m and the glacier had lots of fresh snow on Friday & Saturday and this morning it looks like more fresh snow. The temperatures have also been pretty variable with high temps during the day and freezing conditions during the night.This always seems to happen when the wine festival is staged, so keep your fingers crossed for more snow in the next few weeks.

With regard to lessons/coaching all the Espace Killy should be open in December so the possibilites for lessons should be endless, Piste performance to Bumps to Offpiste etc I would suggest anybody who fancies a few hours has a look on www.snoworks.co.uk web site and PM's me their level and requirements. I will then offer a few suggestions for everbody to consider over the next coupl of weeks. If you guys also fancy doing a Giant Slalom course this can also be arranged.

Well thats all for now folks as i am just off to do a few hours on the glacier before hitting the wine festival this afternoon Laughing Laughing

I'll be in Val D'Isere for the week beginning December 7th with the missus and a mate, so may be able to hook up with you guys if you're razzing around.

Good news that the precipitation is hitting Tignes - let's hope there's plenty between now and December Smile

stewart woodward, Great news (especially as I will be there for the opening weekend as well (NehNeh ). Will you be teaching on 27th Sept?

No-one has picked up on the tuition so I think folk can do as you suggest and look on www.snoworks.co.uk and PM you with requirements.

I am all booked and paid for 8th-11th Dec, I had both feet operated on 4th June to remove Mortons Neuroma's and started looking forward to this trip with my Daughter.

BUT, I tripped over the uneven entrance at Cite Europe landing on my left knee, doing something really silly to it Shocked after 3 weeks the swelling is just as bad and I can feel something moving around under the kneecap. I briefly saw the surgeon (at a check up for my feet) and he frowned and told me to leave it another 2 weeks. Confused

At the moment, I am trying to keep positive about it, but if the worst happens, are there people on here who were looking for a holiday within these dates ?, the room I have booked has bunk beds and no loo !!,

I am off to Zante next Sunday, maybe a week of doing nothing is all it needs. rolling eyes

Guys, with the shocking exchange rate of around 1.18 euro to £1, and not likely to recover to 1.35, remember the currency surcharge will be applicable.


"If on the day your holiday starts, the exchange rate on Travelex (http://www.travelex.co.uk) is worse than 1.35 Euro to £1, we will ask you to pay a supplement in the resort of:

20 Euro per 7 day holiday
10 Euro per 3 or 4 day short break
By adding a potential charge in this way, we incur no collection charges, & we have kept our price increase for 2008-09 below French, Italian & indeed UK inflation rates.

We trust you will find this solution to be fair & we have added it to our booking terms & conditions. The currency surcharge will apply to departures after 25th Sept 08."

For people that might be thinking of booking on this and haven't yet, you might want to hurry up and book because the first issue of Daily Mail Ski & Snowboard magazine arrived on my doormat yesterday morning, and Edge to Edge had this deal advertised in there from £99 (for the September & October trips) so I suspect it will get a lot more interest all of a sudden.

My knee still hurts rolling eyes but I have decided I will still go, the Dr thinks I have damaged the cartilidge, (again) but I know my limits and if I can't ski much, I will book my Daughter into ski school, I found out today, if I cancel, I wouldn't get all my money back because my Daughter is still fit to go, so I decided to continue as planned.

pippivixen, sounds good news, but how long is rehab on this type of clean up. I assume it is pin-hole surgery so not long at all...

Looking forward to this, but undecided on whether to take skis... depends what is there at the time, I guess

pippivixen, sounds like good news, but bone floating about sounds painful.

JT, I'm taking my skis and if there is pow I will take out some atomic nomads. i thought the selection of skis was limited in short lengths - day 1 I skied 166 scott realms, I usually ski 153 Shocked tried rossi attraxtions on day 2, not that keen on them. I think the guys are trying to get a wider selection together - I can;t remember what else they had.

holidayloverxx,

Maybe we will get an idea when the Oct and early Dec group go out. I'll probably take my skis.... I haven't used them on snow and I want to see how they handle on hard snow and cookies and stuff.
