Davo 1 Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 You lucky muckas-I want to go back to NZ where it has been dumping and they look set for an awesome season. There is one place which just does backcounty snowcat runs and they have a 150cm base already. I went home last August and it was the perfect escape. Link to post Share on other sites

big-will 7 Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Scotland, Liverpool, and Thailand. What a mix. I'll be cooking up here for the most part unfortunately, hoping to escape for a week or so in early August. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Got your tickets for going to Bristol yet rach? Obon's nearly full up, at least with the safe carriers. It's looking like a 16-hour white knuckle ride with F-rated Turkish Delight Airlines - gulp Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 Looks like not now. Even Turkish Airlines are full. I'll probably have to leave it till Christmas. Gosh, I hope the snow isn't very good around the festive season! Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 My days of flying any airline with a rating lower than 'B' are over. I mean to live to be a cantankerous old bugger who refuses to trim his eyebrows. Link to post Share on other sites
