That's were I learned to snowboard.

If you don't know what to do on two sticks then there is no hope for you in life

Ha ha. I've never actually tried skiing. The boots seemed a bit clumsy and too many things to carry.

And you look far less cool, obviously.

Look cool? You've clearly never seen me negotiate a slope have you?

Myself and Mrs DFP went to Verbier for a week at the end of February, we've always favoured France but my boss and his wife have been raving about good Verbier is and they head out four or five times a season. Well, what a sack of shit that was don't get me wrong, the resort is beautiful, the bars and restaurants plentiful, but the actual terrain is dreadful. Dreadful signage, poor lift system and all of the slopes are punctuated by either being dead ends or they cross over with another piste. Can confidently say we will not be going back there.

I've spent the last few years skiing in the Morzine / Avoriaz area so going to St Anton is a step into the unknown. Would feel happier if I knew I could watch the Leeds game.

Have a look at Bar Cuba, see if they're advertising it?

If you arrive at the bottom alive you have a story to tell the chalet - that's all that matters

I now fancy an Easter sky holiday with family and it's down to this bloody thread. Where's the fixture list?

You'll miss watching the Leeds game on tv if you go at Easter.

Ugh. Banff is where it's at.

Done Whistler twice now, as my wife's sister lives in Vancouver - Due to location, I haven't been to Banff to compare, but last year, we all (family) learnt to ski (i'm a boarder) with a great Irish Instructor out there, and (baring the occasional Dolce & Gabana clad Chinese 'skier' who has never had any lessons..) we love it.

It's expensive, but you see where you lift pass money goes, and the whole 'after you..' queuing thing is quite refreshing after Europe.
