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 :-)

Boarders sat in a large group in the middle of the piste.

Why?

So many of them seem to do it, its almost like they get taught to do it in their lessons.

Are you one of those " lets jump on the alienate the smoker band wagon" one of those that sits in a pub beer garden in summer and complains about smokers, just f**c off back inside its no smoking in there.

You could always get another chair, probably more interesting on your own and im not a smoker, what i do mind is all the drunks rolling around at 8pm when you are trying to have a quiet meal.

The journey. Will we make it to the airport or get stuck on the motorway behind a big accident and miss the plane? Will there be problems with the luggage - weight or distribution. Will I get an aisle seat (I'm claustrophobic)? Will it be on time or delayed for hours? Will the transfer bus depart on time or will it have to wait for another flight which has been delayed for hours? The whole thing seems a nightmare ....

Oddly enough, I never have these feelings to such an extent for summer holidays Puzzled It may have something to do with the greater anticipation of a brilliant holiday. Or it may just be that I usually have to get up at 2.00 or 3.00 in the morning and am not thinking rationally! Laughing

Queues, queues - any wait of more than 10 seconds to get on a lift.

And perpetual kit adjusters - you know the ones who have to adjust their boots before getting on the lift and again afterward, then get something out of their backpack then take great care putting on their poles, but have to do it all again because the sunglasses are not correct and the boots need adjusting again. Then complain cos I have got off the lift and skied off.

oh and the morons who stop at the bridge over the road in obertauern for a look and a chat blocking the whole thing off. so skiers have to stop and walk up to the lip and boarders have to unclip.. just get out of the way before your chat, i give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they are dim rather than ignorant

It has to be whole groups of people in an airport who all wear their ski club t shirts/sweatshirts with the name of the group written in massive letters on the front or people who wear things that say SKI or SNOWBOARD just because they are going on a ski holiday, they don't do the same when they are going to the toilet so they shouldn't do it at the airport! Evil or Very Mad

The answer is to ski off so you don't hear the complains.

When I do see people standing at places they shouldn't, I would knock them with my pole handle, pretending I was off-balanced. Smile

And I think everyone should do the same.Wink

If they couldn't make the connection of being knocked by off-balanced skier repeatedly with standing at places they ought not be, well, there isn't much you can teach them, can you? rolling eyes

We love skiing otherwise we wouldn't frequent this website, nor would we spend vast amounts of our hard-earned on ski trips. Minor irritations are just minor irritations. Life is full of them, you just have to ignore them as much as possible and ski around them.

Sheesh...

Putting all the gear on, what a faff.


Has all that faffing sorted out the chaffing then wink

Your right though, as for me, even the braying boors from a certain locale can be a source of amusement. All of the niggles of going on a Skiing holiday are worth the pleasure of hitting the snow ( whatever the condition)
