Hi,
Just to say that I've set up a Mailman list on fysh.org so we can discuss
the Ski Social to our collective heart's content without impacting on those
who don't give a toss about snow.
I suggest those who were interested subscribe to the new list.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is the list address

Absolutely. I'm a huge fan of Val d'Isere, where I worked for a season.
Chamonix isn't too convenient (valley town) but has marvellous skiing

I'm definitely interested. I think Robin was, and maybe Leon. Beyond
that, I don't know.
Absolutely. I think it's a grand idea and don't mind taking two days

I'm interested depending on cost. I can probably manage the relevant
days off, given sufficient notice.

When the lovely snow was coming down, Robin Szemeti and I discussed how
we should do a London.PM-On-The-Piste social this winter. I was hoping
to gauge opinion on this... Would anybody be interested in a weekend in
the Alps skiing or snowboarding?

Val d'Isere is wonderful. WONDERFUL. Possibly the best skiing in the
world, good nursery slopes, excellent ski schools (loads of choice too),

Could I also suggest a high resort, to avoid problems with lack of snow
I can highly recommend Les Trois Vallees (Meribel, Courcheval, etc).
The only drawbacks are that it's a 3hr train, then a 1 hr bus
