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 :-)

This is Italy after all. God bless it.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

... and one day later the organisers of the Turin Olympics have fought back with claims that the facilities are being completed ahead of schedule.
This report from
BBC Online.
They seem to completely contradict the Reuters reporter regarding the ski jump venue, who said:
Quote:
The jumps were supposed to be finished in October but Pertile said they were likely to be ready only in June, and it is still hard to imagine the world descending on Pragelato, a 400-person hamlet.
Who should we believe?
