We could have a sweep for next time Tino heads for the mountains. What are the odds on:

No Insurance:

Getting Drunk:

Falling Over Whilst Sober:

Fancying The Barmaid:

Slumming In A Posh Hotel

I will try for this one bandit....

No Insurance: 100/1. Tino had at least three insurances, he just didn't have one that covered the helicopter.

Getting Drunk: 4/5 on

Falling Over Whilst Sober: Evens

Fancying The Barmaid: 6/4 on, (after all, none of us have seen her)

Fancying The Barmaid: After Getting Drunk: 4/6 favourite

Fancying The Barmaid: (Including any chances of trapping off), after falling Over Whilst Sober: 15/1

Slumming In A Posh Hotel: Void bet, all spare cash taken up on getting an extra three insurances to cover the helicopter.

Who cares, Tino has surely won the first J2ski award for first ski of the year. :-)

Next October its our 10th wedding anniversary, thats us sorted we are going to The Tux, wish we had thought of it for this year, I am on holiday next week and we could have booked some-thing. The hotel Tino,s at looks lovely as well. I dont think I will be able to book local flights, we only seem to go to Innsbruck during winter months.

book flights to Munich and then it's only a 2 hour drive from there

I can get flights to Innsbruck from Gatwick so I would think about an hour,s drive from Innsbruck. Probably would taxi it, dont really want to hire a car, we do enough driving at home it would be nice not to drive for a week.

I would hazard a guess at a taxi costing somewhere around 100 euros each way from Innsbruck Airport. Its about an hour and 15 to Mayrhofen from there, and Tux is another 15 to 20 mins further up the valley from there, not sure how many miles exactly. I would certainly suggest car hire as more favourable. You can also get a train to Jenbach, and a bus or train to Mayrhofen, and a post bus to Tux, that would probably be cheapest option.
