]]> Comment on Think before you drink. by DJ Morris http://www.sauzeonline.com/blog/mountain-chatter/think-before-you-drink/comment-page-1/#comment-41 DJ Morris Sun, 07 Feb 2010 14:44:08 +0000 http://www.sauzeonline.com/blog/?p=149#comment-41 James, wise words, very wise words. I have no problem at all with the campaign, and I don't think it is a nanny state either. Unfortunately a large proportion of people do need educating on the dangers of drinking whilst on the slopes, or during the apres ski. It is a very sad reflection of the booze culture which poisons the country. Drinking is fine, in moderation wherever you are. However moderation is often the last thing on people's mind. Sad really. And of course dangerous when you introduce skiing, boarding, sub-zero temperatures and being in an unfamiliar environment. Best, Jon James, wise words, very wise words.

I stayed at the <a href="http://www.sauzeonline.com/accomodation/bianca-neve/" rel="nofollow">Biancaneve</a> last year and couldn't fault it for anything. I'm pretty sure they're going independent this year.... This is definitely good news!

Great news James, really good :-) About time Sauze saw some new lifts. As long as they never replace the legendary Rocce Nere chair, I will be happy! Whoa! Great news James, really good :-)

I'm a big fan of the <a href="http://theorsobianco.com/" rel="nofollow">Orso Bianco</a>, right on the slopes, family run, and superb value. Fingers crossed for just as much snow this season!

Very easy, and makes the Uk trains look like what they really are. Overpriced, dirty and late. Jon Besson has however done the journey on the Eurostar from London, to Paris, change and then to Oulx. Cheers! DJ Morris 8-) Ciao DJ! :-)
