 Poster: A snowHead
|
Skiing well at 68, if not quite so far, so fast or so long as before! And by and large only on-piste these days. Level 2 Alpine Instructor and although most certainly not offering instruction, not averse to passing on the odd tip. Après ski tends to focus on a good meal with a few drinks, enjoyable conversation and sleep. Will share a room.
Looking for a space in a chalet with congenial group (congenial on and off the slopes) week beginning 9/10, 16/17, 23/24 March

ccl, if you're looking at France (where the bulk of chalets are) your second or third week would be best - the first is still Paris holidays.

ccl, There may be some SHs joining us in Serre Chevalier around then, maybe week of the 16th? Not sure what their plans are yet though, they're looking for a chalet or hotel deal. Would be nice to meet up again.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

they do, but it makes sense. 4 weeks from mid Feb - mid March with practically every room let, bums on seats in restaurants, busy lifts, roads chaotic. Resorts make their money for the year. It would make no sense to squish it into fewer weeks (except for the rest of us, of course  ).

Are you and J going to be there the week of the 16th? If so, there is availability at the Charlotte which I might take up. It would indeed be good to see you both.

I've sent off a booking to Ski Miquel for the Charlotte. Looking forward to seeing you both again and if there are other  s around, so much the better.

bug, week too early. Mind you, only makes 1 day difference. Fancy some skiing company if they have a room?

You know it makes sense.

pam w, I've booked the Hotel de la Paix, it is right in the centre, but with private parking in the courtyard.

Hells Bells,
I have a return date for lunch at a particular place whose name and exact location I can't remember. Probably dependent on one or other of you to lead the way. All I remember is that it is a smallish place underneath a much bigger and much less interesting restaurant.
