Wickers will go for the food, while the family goes skiing :lol:

Just looked at the webcam for that Landgraaf place. It's empty! Waaaaaa I wanna go :cry:

Steady Ian, our tennis club will give you an annual subscription for not much more than that. Best all weather courts in our part of Scotland, (No prizes for guessing who is in charge of maintenance!, and pretty much everything else, new committee members are like melting snow!) Floodlit, so able to keep playing through all the non-ski bits of winter.

You must live in an elitist area, Ian

It is very much elitist, so not quite sure what a member ship costs but it is a pretty penny, I'll make some enquires as Little W has been to a couple of half term coaching days and I would like to get her into a club, I'll report back 8)
