I believe that quite a bit of the overcharging that carriers/airlines/T.O's seem to be indulging in right now is down simply to not knowing their product.

I would always put my boots in my main case, locked, and transfer my underwear and thermals ) into my hand luggage.

A friends' daughter went through Bristol with ski boots in hand luggage last year. Airport "securidee" refused to allow them through and took them off her. She purchased another pair of boots in resort, and reported her original pair were not at Bristol on her return.

Expensive ski trip.

Luckily we stayed half board but still managed to spend around £1500 in one week.

Gordon Bennett :shock: For how many people?

(My apologies to all Gordon Bennetts out there)

The grip should be comfy in your hand when you are wearing your gloves. Avoid small grips. Try and get a pair with decent sized baskets. Too many poles these days are supplied with teeny little disc baskets which are hopeless if it snows.

You should be able to get a decent budget pair for £15-£20 I reckon.

We got hit by a rockfall just there at the start of our first winter here, Mrs Ise's car was only a couple of months old and it made a nasty mess of the body work.

I remain convinced that you are THE rock magnet for the whole valley )

That is the main road, it's 2 way, and you share it with lorries carrying whole tree trunks, locals and the Postbus (which has right of way of course) )
