In all honesty I'll possible find it expensive as we don't ski the real expensive French resorts.


That's true for much of Austria, but Arlberg/St Anton prices are closer to the big French resorts than the Austrian average. (Lech and Zurs are more like Switzerland)

But then the quality of the skiing is well above the Austrian average too, so as usual you get what you pay for.

St Christoph is a gorgeous little village.

Sleeps till Chatel ...... 77

Sleeps till St Christoph ...... 126


Is that all it is 126 days?
Looking forward to meeting you and having some skiing together.

Sh1t, that also means that we have to pay some money in a few weeks.
Right, off to get the ski mask and do a bank job.

Yep looking forward to it and meeting all you guys ...... plenty of skiing and one or two sherbets :thumbup:


Wickers, plenty of drinking in my cafe hopping extravaganza.
Yes "One Run Dowling", payment is due soon, as per the email you were sent earlier this week.

BTW Its a ski holiday, not a coffee sampling trip 8)

Don't forget the bet: a drink if you make it (on skis) to the Mooserwirt. :wink:



Tony, I dont drink coffee on the slopes.
You will be buying the drinks.

a couple of breaks yes but not for the coffee. Maybe a beer or 3.

Too much beer and skiing do not always agree, I normally have a pint at lunch and a couple of snorts from the old hip flask, Just to keep out the cold :wink:
