Nah it's a family trip, but up to 3 other matters and their families could come along.

Great film gstq, if you haven't seen it

We've decided on Switzerland. In and out of Zurich, probably a weekend day or two in local smaller resorts then a larger resort for midweek.
That's as far as we've got, a local friend is organising details.

A friend has been a couple of times to Bettmeralp, which is about 350kms from Zurich airport. He loved it. Car free chocolate-boxy type village, I think

Well having just found out that it adjoins Gross Fusshorn, I'd say my selection process is complete.

Actually I've been to Brig, very briefly on a train from Geneva to Bologna. They spoke this weird form of German which was almost exactly* like Swedish. You may have just helped me to pick a winner.
Plus the train past the Eiger is fcuking incredible, and anywhere you arrive by cable car is golden.





Very slightly resembled

Should be some good action both on and off the snow, loof.
I saw some stunning Aryan specimens last visit.

Hold your fire, legion. :wink:
But why are you worried about t-bars? I'm not, and I'm sideways.

Balls deep brother Boo, and I aint talking about in Snow :wink:

I have skied all over Europe, for that area I can reccommend Gstaad.

Best place in France for me was Courchevel.

Grindelwald is firming as the preferred location.

Plans got thrown out of whack because we've been invited to a wedding in Ravenna on New Year's Eve so we had to shuffle a bit.
