We certainly are!mightymidget, will be easy to spot because she's pretty short and with fairly long red hair. I'm about 5'10 and at that time in the morning almost guaranteed to be wearing some sort of hat and looking very blearry eyed! See you then georglette,

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

jonnybroome, great, I'll keep an eye out for you both! If you should spot me first - I'm really short, quite round, and will look like death warmed up at that time of day!!

Whoah - we seem to have a 'mad rush'
Yes georglette, that should be fine.
Actually, I've a FD account too - it would be instant between them. I'll PM you the details.
|
admin, mad rush is obviously because I've signed up ... ha ha ha !!! Not !
Bother - I'm with FD too but already sent my transfer - please advise when you get it .

I've just had a useful chat and the answer to everyone's top question is: yes I have a confirmed transfer plan now.
They have 3 buses coming down full from Ad'H. Two of those are scheduled to go back full and one empty.
It's slightly more expensive for them to return the bus with people on it instead of empty so if we split the cost, it can be ours.
The big plus here (IMHO) is that, as long there aren't any last minute changes causing them to need to put some of their own people on it too, we can depart as soon as we have all arrived which would be 60-90 minutes sooner.
The cost of this is 12€ each way.
As it's a Euro sum, you can either convert it to sterling with the button on your snowAccount or give me the cash on Sunday.
The other popular question is the cost Sole Occupancy: £75 will give you a place of your own.
Buttons for each of these have been added to the top of this topic.

admin, will give you cash on sunday...... I've pressed the buttons and told it you are 'paying' , hope this is right ???

...... if our flights all arrive on time.... will they wait or will any stragglers need to get the 13.30 public bus ??

admin, I told my boss a few weeks ago that my job was not worth missing my skiing holiday for. I'd asked for next Christmas and New Year off, and one day was apparently a problem. It suddenly was no longer such a problem....................

Hi Marionskibabe, as you paid by PayPal, it's all confirmed already.
BREAKING NEWS - I just had a word with 'the man' and told him that we are 17 now. He has agreed that this warrants opening the kitchen in the Belle Aurore. So, no wandering up the road for dinner (unless you want to, of course).

Ok...daft question I'm sure but does the £50 ski hire include boots and poles too? I'm guessing yes, but I don't want to look like an idiot in my socks while everyone else has brought their own boots...

yes, you'll get boots and poles too: iit's not Ryan Hire

p.s. Got paypal too if thats better?..Trixx

Hi trixx! That's not a problem. You can pay them via PayPal using a card but the payPal charges (2.9% + 20p) are added.
Unless you're using a no-cost exchange rate credit card like the Nationwide one, it will still be cheaper to do that than buy it in resort on your card.
We've got the passes for £180. The resort price is 215€.
I'll PM you my 1st direct acct details.

Anyone need a lift from South London to Gatwick for the 7am sleazyjet? I'll be setting off about 5am and can manage a couple of pick ups en-route. Also can bring back on 16th. £10 per seat should cover costs. Booked car for meet and greet (no long shuttle bus rides)!
