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 :-)

Good afternoon sports fans. Does anyone know of a bar in Tignes le lac that is likely to be showing the six nations games this weekend and the FA cup final on Sunday? Much obliged.

Lots of bars, both English & French, will be showing the rugby. A couple of the most popular are the Alpaka & Loop bars.

Loop bar I believe is which is in le lac, also think scottys bar in le lavachet is too. Here at the moment so pretty sure the rugby fans in our chalet are accurate on the plan for where to go on the weekend!! Happy

Nice, thanks folks. I've been to Tignes once previously so thought Loop or Alpaka would be showing it, but just wanted to confirm with some people who have there more recently. My apologies, it is indeed the league cup, not the FA cup. DOH! Hoping for a good week next week..... crazy warm weather forecast. Also, does anyone know what's up with the glacier this year.... from what I can see on the webcams they seem to have done some football pitch stylie grooming....

Tordi, They have basically plowed large furrows in the snow on the glacier to trap snow to increase the depth of snow to prolong the summer season. This works especially well when it is blowin a hooollleee as the glacier gets scoured very easily. They have been doing it in the winter off piste areas for about 3 or 4 years they have just extended the area this year. They are actually quite deep - if you are lucky and first up there in the powder it certainly concentrates the mind cos if you don't get a decent turn rhythm going you get propelled into the air park style.

Clever them piste bashing folks! Thanks for the info chocksaway. Arriving tomorrow lunchtime, can't wait. Although I'm a tiny bit disappointed that it won't be thundering down with a metre of snow tonight in preparation for my arrival, I'm looking forward to sitting outside in a t-shirt sipping my coffee in the sun at a reasonable pace.......compared to the usual chugging it down, to see it off before it goes cold. On the flip side, I might have to drink the beer quicker though, else it warm up..... Toofy Grin
