Poster: A snowHead
|
After getting the wife to change her mind for our easter ski trip from the ususal Andorra to somewhere in france, she has been on the web and been on the sierra nevada website and just texted me she would like us to go there next year(been 12 times before).
She has seen its open next Easter and seen the pics of the last few aprils snow covering and it was the best of the season.
Just when i thought my battle was over..................

tell her you'll go to sierra nevada if she organises it
if you're organising you get to choose
the only problem with this is that if you go where you want to go you can't prevent endless comments about how it isn't as good as the other place

Grenada is lovely that time of year. A trip around the Alhambra palace, pop down to Malaga for some shopping - I believe the clubbing is also very good....there are regular busses from outside the Sol y Neige

jase2472, I am usually completely safe in making that sort of ultimatum because my wife would rather wash my dirty gym kit for a whole year than organise a holiday
it's quite a good arrangement actually

Jo66 I'm not sexist! If it was his brother/male friend or whoever who wanted to go back to the same place for the 12th time I'd still recommend jase2472 did the same

jase2472,
Try and find pics on the web of Andora when the snow was bobbins at Eatser (can any snowheads help here?). Print them out and leave them around. Do the same with other resorts you would like to visit where the snow was plentiful (it is helpful if the pics were taken at the same time and also dated). Then wait.

hi, my first post, being female this might help.... pretend you thought she said Serre Chevalier, book it up and as an apology arrange to take her to Grenada for a romantic weekend, promises of shoes and sparkly earings could do the trick

An excellent suggestion. I love Grenada, and the Sierra Nevada, but wouldn't fancy skiing there in April. Sunbathing perhaps (but maybe that is the plan)

Indeed. Grenada's not too good for skiing at any time of year, and an expensive weekend destination. sprinkles, you are selling the sisterhood pretty cheap there. "Sparkly earrings" indeed!!

My bad ....however the post was from experience - I found myself skiing in Sierra Nevada in late March once. Well, I say skiing, but I actually spent most of my time doing all the things I originally suggested. With a very sunburnt scalp.

tell her to go on her own and go to val with your mates..... a far better solution.
