Just wanted to say thank you to Jack Frost today for wrecking my windscreen, a nice 18" crack to great me today.
At least insurance companies go easy on us with this, only £65 to pay for a new one.

We've gone through 2 windscreens in our Audi in 2 years. Took 3 attempts for the windscreen people to get the latter one sorted.

We've just booked our next trip to Tignes.............
.............in July 2013! :mrgreen:
Two weeks in the Le Telemark apartments in Tignes Le Lacs. Mega cheap compared to the winter prices. I'm not assuming that we'll be able to ski but it would be a nice bonus. Primary aim is to do some mountain biking, canyoning etc etc and maybe have a crack at some climbing using the via ferrata (with guide!). We'll be getting the ferry so taking our car which should open up further opportunities. Definitely have a drive up to the Col d'Iseran.
Second ski holiday in the main season looking less likely unfortunately. Just really expensive as we are confined to school hols and we need to buy a new car soon as well. :(
At least we will be booking Xmas 2013 ski hol soon though.
No rest for the wicked in chez BB
