Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Colin B, for some reason it's been a little trickier than last year getting info/quotes from the necessary suppliers but... in answer to your question: yes, there is talk

I'm really interested in this. I'm also a bit of a troglodyte when it comes to finding my way around this (and other) websites. Are there any links to reports of previous PSB's; just to whet my appetite and to give me more of an idea of what to expect? Thanks in anticipation etc.
Oops! Just discovered that by clicking on PSB'S in bold blue I have managed to answer my own question.

I basically have everything ready to go for the PSB2012 except one thing: when to run the transfers?
I was looking at flight times so as to optimise the transfers for the best possible number of flights but there seem to be no flights to GVA, Grenoble or Lyon from anywhere other than London airports on 1st and 8th Dec.
Is this so or have I missed something somewhere?

admin, I haven't checked, but that's quite possible. The only flights from the NW for last year's PSB involved changing in London or elsewhere in Europe. That's why a bunch of us hopped on the trains instead. Easyjet seems to take a little break between it's full-on summer and winter GVA schedules

admin, you are indeed correct - nothing direct at the moment from outside London. Regional routes may not yet have been confirmed or maybe they've just decided that they aren't going to make any money from them this early in the season.

There wasn't a lot last year either. My travelling companions came down to Luton from Manchester and Barnsley.

admin, sounds about right; it was the same last year, so I expect anyone who comes up in a rash at the mere mention of London will have to go via Amsterdam and have KLM lose their luggage.

But on the up-side harrisontherabbit, they could end up a far better skier for it

In anticipation of this year’s PSB I have just created a separate login for Mrs rdwags who is definitely up for her first SH bash. Gutted because I have no leave left and will have to wait just a bit longer for my inauguration
