Who's been to Xscape and tried out the indoor skiing? I went to the one near Castleford (Yorskshire) last year and found it to be a pleasan distraction from having to wait another 11 months for BG.
It was a little pricey but I couldn't fault the experience - a really good laugh - we chose 'quiet hours' and we almost had the place to ourselves/
