Feeling even less smug

flight cancelled (thank you easy jet - all other airlines operated OK out of Liverpool and Innsbruck)

hoping to get back on Christmas eve, otherwise I will be alone in Rossendale and my family will be in Niederau

Ho Ho Ho      Merry Christmas

Michael

Hi,

is there a campsite suitable for a motorhome in Niederau?

the best one near here for skiing is at Brixen, because it has it's own lift from which you can ski to the gondola at Brixen, and from the piste you can ski back to the camp site.

It is situated about half way between Hopfgarden and Kitzbuhel, and ideal for skiing on both the Ski Welt and at Kitzbuhel.

here is the website

Have fun

Hi Michael, just to say Happy New Year and sorry to hear you lost a good friend.  Did you get back for Christmas?

Ali

Yes thanks, I did on Christmas eve.

Relaxed now and not thinking about our house at home. When I returned for the funeral, I found a real mess. We had a burst in the loft. Upstairs and downstairs the ceilings had collapsed, walls soaked, wooden floors soaked, water coming out of lights and switches.

A real mess. Left the insurance people to sort it out, hopefully for our return in April.

There are worse things in this life.

Happy New Year

Michael

By the way, did I mention it's snowing.

You don't have ALL our snow in the UK, just quite a lot of it.

Michael

Michael I am so sorry to hear your news about the house, what a disaster for you.  That is going to take quite some time to sort out.  Jeez, this weather is just not what we are used to although more so for you up North but the softie south isn't much good at it.  We still don't have clear roads down here.

I am glad we managed to steal a little of your snow though, given that we cannot get abroad for the foreseeable future.

Hope the house can be put right.

Ali

Thanks

I am sure that it will be OK - eventually

We had a big dump of snow here yesterday and so it is a winter wonderland again.

off to walk the dogs up to Oberau and back soon

Michael

Ali

sorry to hear that you can not get abroad at present.

It is still really nice here with more snow daily

Best Wishes

Michael

Try here to stay and ski

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=9187

all the sites have ski rooms and drying rooms.

you can get insulated bags for your aqua-rolls, but an on board tank is best

at long last the latest British caravans have proper insulation as well.

enjoy

Michael
