No worries - for what it’s worth we stayed in that chalet in January and even with two toddlers getting the bus to the centre was a doddle.

I know Val D well and I want to be by the Solaise/Bellevarde area for the bars and restaurants, if I go on my own they want double the price for the room for single occupancy at that chalet unfortuantely.

I am only desperate to go as during our week in Morzine in Jan I missed all but one day as was in bed with a chest infection and even the day I did was hard work as I felt like st.

Check Ski Vertigo - they have at least one room with no single occupancy surcharge. Or at least they did this season.

Wish I could...

Well I am in Val D’Isere now. It wasn’t happening as was busy last week in the end but yesterday morning I looked at the forecast here and thought fk it. Called a mate and we booked a flight and left 3 hours later.

Late evening flight into Geneva and hired a car and arrived at 1 am this morning.

Up at 9 and on the slopes by 10 we boarded 33 miles today so a good start followed by beers and a quicksilver burger if anyone knows it.conditions are amazing for near May!

Folie Douce season ended today but was sold out so couldn’t get in but went to Le Coin des Amis for 5 or 6.

Great Day

Timlongs. Where do you supply in Val D again. We are in the garage right now and slightly pissed but not sure it’s your stuff?

I have a pair of skis that I’m going to put on my home office wall this weekend. Can’t offload them for even €20, so “art” they will become!

The board downstairs is used as a large key rack.
This one is properly dead. Useful as a conversation starter or a small bench.
