Anyone booked for next season yet?

La Tania first week in Jan with kids and better half.

Selva in March with 9 friends.

Depending how much better half spends on the wedding in May we may, just may get another trip away but it would have to be cheap and very last minute!

Cant wait hay fever is the pits this year!

Boyz (6 of us) off to Sans Sicario Italy 24th Jan and better half and me back to Killington US of A 10th Feb (she loved her first week of skiing that she was so keen to go again she even took 3 days unpaid holiday before the half term!!).

The Planabel is fine never actual stayed there but we used it for after dinner drinks a couple of times , very cosmopolitan 8)

Glad to hear that lots of people are getting booked up and looking forward to next season. I've spent hours pouring over the brochures, but daren't book anything yet as my funding runs out at the end of October and as yet, I haven't managed to find a job (which is really scary.) :(

I've applied for a couple with no success, but there is virtually nothing about at the moment. I'm pinning my hopes on something that isn't even advertised yet, which is a project that looks amazing and I'm really excited about. It also has the advantage of collaborations in the States, one of which is within reach of a number of ski resorts.... Fingers crossed.... )

Val's down the road, they have plenty of skiing 8)

Thanks Ian, good point... went to Val last year - looking fwd to less queuing this year!!

Ste Foy is known as a favourite destination for locals who wish to avoid the crowds

Thanks Bandit - the chalet runs folks across to those places if they want to, I think, but what you say above is what I hear - less busy=less queues=people visiting Val etc for the day then being glad to be back in Foy...

how much does that work out at? ive always thought about it but from glasgow is a bit of a trek!

Probably from Ashford by Eurostar, generally I think its cheaper if you book through a TO, although they do add a supplement for going by train which makes it more expensive than flying. You'd think they'd encourage people to use trains more than flying, clearly the environment isn't top of their list.
