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 :-)

Kruisler, yeah, reading these forums is actually making it worse, not better. and don't get me started on the effects of looking at the webcams once an hour...

or watching riding movies on dvd or youtube...
or making sure your boots still fit well with your wool socks....
or do the other socks feel better...
or figuring out which slimfit merino wool base layer can cover the post-xmas pot belly... rolling eyes

lol make sure your checklist is laminated and practice packing/unpacking your bag.

Jumping Jack Flash,

All good..I know where it is...and I know its valid! Very Happy

It's the details that are gonna catch me. I just found out that my fancy VIP travel insurance, provided to me via my employer, only covers me on-piste. Not really planning to go off-piste but it'd be sod's law that I break a leg just outside the markers..
So i'll get the Carre neige in resort...
Airport parking now booked...
Still waiting on my new split roller to start packing trials...

Also my board is a cheap and cheerful one with dodgy graphics so I have ordered some nice vinyl decals and I am looking to forward to getting all arty some evening this week.. Laughing

5x pairs mycol handwarmers;
1x tube spf 50 creme + stick
