jonm + bfg 6th - 12th
smagsmith (+ 2) 6th - 9th

It looks very much like the old team is forming again for next year, with one or two additions 
|

I'm afraid last year when I put it on Snowheads I got told off by Admin; so apologies to anyone who isn't on our mailing list who may have missed out, but we're not allowed to tell you about it on snowheads!! We're looking at increasing our capacity and will know in the next couple of weeks if that's going to happen. I have a waiting list for the last weekend so please contact me if you'd like to go on it.

Joanne Mountainsun, Thanks for that and to Colin B for putting up the thread. I got the email just before I set off for the EoSB so couldn't log on.

I might be there in Dec this year too for a short break as time off might be limited next season.

I'm going on the 25th of November, hopefully theres a bit of snow apart from on the glacier  will be there with a couple of mates
|

|
|
You know it makes sense.
|
|
We were hoping to go on the 25th Nov but there was no room left for us ( 8 ) so we are going 18th now. There was plenty of snow last year on 5th Nov and more than just the glacier open - hopefully even more will be open by 18th but I think the resort is normally officially fully open the last weekend of Nov.

Just stay out of the rum bar in Le Lac. The pain a few hours later is really not worth it!

No, we have to go, otherwise there will be more people behind the bar than on the right side of it...

Why not just buy a few bottles of Captain Morgan's at Gatwick and have a rum party back at the Les Boisses?

Colin B, Much better idea! combine with dry ginger and lime for a very moreish cocktail (not very dark rum though)

Haven't been able to drink rum for 35 years, got very drunk on it at 16 and was very, very, ill, can't even bear the smell now.

Colin B, I'm the same with brandy. Crying shame but it's a very strong effect when you've been ill like that.
