Highlight for me was sailing (yes, that's right, flappy things!!) on new years day! Got up at 0830 (3hrs sleep, not bad...) and it was bloody freezing, but was a good laugh!

Thanks, I'm looking forward to it, it's my first time to the area, despite having worked at a large number of resorts in France and Europe, I've never been so I'm hoping for good snow conditions!
