I’ve been to Rhyl when it wasn’t full of scousers.

Anybody know what Andorra's like these days? Went skiing there in Soldeu in the early days, 1981 and 82 I think - great skiing as I remember but an absolute toilet of a place - main thing going for it was the duty free prices, and a record shop that sold jazz vinyls that you couldn't get in the UK

Was it a gully with lots of snowboarders overtaking on the sides ? I can remember going down one into Val D'Isere and having to stop every 100m to make sure I had brought my credit card and copy of my medical insurance.

Chaz I didnt head all the way back to Val d'Isere I cut back to Tignes I think all the 'trouble' is the supposed blue run 'home' that can be busy and icy. Whereas up on the top it was wide open I had a ball and a Marmott Burger a proper growler

Probably going to be told to get a room as this is getting a bit spooky now;
1) We have been discussing our next big birthday (2021) and Japan is top of the list
2) WO that blue run I suspect is Santons, now a red and generally, busy ,icy and a walk out at the end
3) Been to Whistler twice and would highly recommend it
4) Been to Rhyl as well
5) been to Llandudno dry ski slope but only on the toboggan run
