For any of you who haven't made it to the newsagents yet, The Observers entire travel section (Escape) is devoted to ski-ing and all things snow related. Clothes, hidden resorts, the bottom and the top end of the price range, skis (from Martin Bell), Japan, Bansko, avalanches, singles chalets...

Hoppo, though, like boredsurfin, I had been tipped by Google Alerts about some of the articles, you prompted me to potter down to the newsagent; thanks. It's a great supplement - and I see Martin Bell likes Scott Missions too. Now where can I get them at a discount?

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

boredsurfin, Thanks. Some good articles.
I particularly like the article on cheap Three Valleys by bus. Not everybody is flush with funds and that could be useful. It did not sound too bad - but only a journalist would then blow an extra 80 euros on a meal (or say they did).
I will not be buying any newspapers as I can read enough extracts on the web. The big ones are just time stealers.

The Chemmy Alcott article brings back fantastic memories - Gers is one of my favourite funs in the whole world too - apart from being amazing it's also the place where my smug (17 years old at the time) brother admitted to me (13 yrs old at the time) that I am a better skier than him!
He then tried to kill me off piste by making me jump off a small cliff!

thanks for the heads up Hoppo, I'll nip on to the shop now. Never usually buy Sunday papers meself, but as I can't carry the PC to the toilet I'll get a copy.
IncogSkiSno, I tie my children up with the dog - no way will anyone pinch that lot.

Nah, I'm too tight to buy that sort of kit. Would be a waste of beer tokens.
