Well....Flights are paid for,... Car booked and snowboard is out the loft and snuggly packed in it's little (!) bag.. Snow was too tempting to miss out for 3 day early warm up in the Froggie alps.. Will be watching the Pamps webcam with interest for one of my 'proper' hols in 2008.. Can't wait.. Oh.. I don't have to.. Yippee
