Hi. Keith here. 55. Newly retired teacher who can ski outside school holidays for the first time ever. All ski pals teachers. Wasn't sure I could ski this year due to knee trouble. Have recovered. Looking to fill a space on a trip. If you have a space or are let down and need a late replacement. I'm available! I'm a solid intermediate skier who likes to explore as much of the pisted mountain as possible. A couple of beers/wines or whisky's is apres enough for me as I like to get up and on my skies early. Message me please!

There’s me telling you I’m 58. I’m not I’m 56 on the 22nd of Feb, I don’t know where I got 58 from. It’s a great feeling though be 2 years younger.

Hi, are you looking for one more on this trip on the 7th/8th March? I’m a 54 year year old good intermediate/advanced boarder who was going with my daughter but now can’t make it.

why not. we haven't decided on a location yet just that we're definitely going.
we'll be booking end of Feb so we can be as sure as we can be to ensure good snow

Sounds like a good plan. Which airports are closest to you ?

Keith..I too have just finished teaching and am in the same position as you; all my friends are still teaching but I can go in term time. I’m looking to go week beginning 21st March. Package to Alps somewhere, catered with flights for as close to £500 as possible. Let me know if you’re interested. Jez

You know it makes sense.

We are a group of 3 intermediates me, my hubby and my friend (56/55/52) going to Valmeiner on the 8th March flying from Birmingham to Grenoble with Jet2.
Flights are only £100 return at the moment, and I think the apt above the one we've booked is still available, fits 6 for £500 - if you were to go Valmeiner/Valloire would be good to meet with other skiers during the day.

Hi, Just joined snowheads as looking for a weeks trip on 7th/8th March as not keen on solo skiing and appear to be on my own this year. Same sort of profile as Keef64 (not a retired teacher).
Normally fly out of Gatwick but can be flexiable, not working anymore so have days available either side of the week to travel.
First time on this or any other forum so not sure how it all works but hey whats to lose.

@swimsutty, Afternoon swimsutty. I am still looking to go on week end of 7th 8th if you get no response from the others i would be happy to join up with you. I have boarded, years ago but just ski these days (don't bounce so well), Usually try to go to any high resort in France staying in catered chalets but would go elsewhere snow allowing. Normally fly out of Gatwick, Southampton, Bournemouth. But guess if we book a package you could fly from Birmingham and myself from Gatwick. I am slightly older than you but fit and like to ski all day.
Don't tend to party late but like a beer and few glasses of wine.
