Ian W is just joking about Austria - that's what the wink is for :wink:

So, don't worry about it :D

It's not good to post your assumptions about how other Forum members feel. :shock:

You're quite right Bandit :D

What I should have said was 'I think that Ian W is just joking ...'

I mean, none of us can ever, really know what anyone else is thinking and in fact sometimes I'm not too sure what I'm thinking or if, indeed I'm thinking at all (as on this occasion).

So, perhaps to be even more accurate I should have said, 'I think, that I think, that Ian W is just joking ...'
:lol:

And, 'I think that I think that perhaps, in this instance, I was wrong, but I'm not too sure. I will have to think about it some more ...' :lol:

5 day round trip, max 3 days skiing, 1st week of December 2012.
We are good intermediate skiers.
35 - 40 years old.
We Like good restuarants & bars,
Ski in Ski out would be desireable,

Mayrhofen or Kitzbuhel?????
Open to suggestions!!!!

I have just thought another thought, which is that maybe we'd better get back to the subject of this thread ... :D

I was in Val Thorens (France) in April 2011, V good experience.
I am constrained by the fact that I have to fly from Cork airport in Ireland, which has a direct flight to Munich.

A friend of mine recommended Bad HofGastein, my wife and I are good intermediates skiers, what are your thoughts on Bad Hof :?: :?:

ADVICE ON AUSTRIA

Completed one ski trip to Austria which was enjoyable mainly due to the company, down side average food, Miserable looking restaurant staff, over crowded pistes, unreliable piste markings.
Maybe it is unfair critisising Austria after only one visit but what I would say if you are looking for customer service St Anton is not your type of place.

I'm struggling to understand what the post above ^^^^ means. Anyone else?

Dear Mr/Ms Helmet,

I was asked how many times I had been to Austria and my reply was six which it is,
if I had been asked how many times I have skied Austria my reply would have been one.
I do hope that clarifys the matter for you.

Kind Regards

Wickers :wink:
