    Andorra is a good place to ski, I've been snowboarding there a few times but to be honest it's a cheap good value resort but there are much better places out there. Have you been to Austria or Switzerland? Higher resorts usually mean better snow conditions but I suppose at the end of the day it's all down to who you go with. One of my best holidays would have been Borovets in Bulgaria. First time skiing and the conditions were appalling but I had an absolute ball!

    Now come on Giv, we know that's not true! They'd never make it up there with slicks on!

    Ye, I've skied in Scotland, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Bulgaria, Andorra, Italy, France, Spain, Sweden, Oldham, Rossindale, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Leeds and probably some more places. I missed a chance to ski in Canada earlier this year as the weather was crap on the only weekend I could have gone whilst working over there. Andorra one of my top places because of the miles and miles of slopes and the pure variety of runs, there's something for everyone.

    Seconds later Hayden fell off and Rossi managed to get 7th place in the queue at the burger van.

    it's bloody cheap, I rode though there sept 2011 and was amazed how cheap it was compared to Spain and france. Almost a 3rd cheaped for fuel. 1 Euro a ltr. and Ciggys 15 euro's for 200. plus loads of knifes and rep guns to buy cheap. but when going over the boarder in and out they were shit hot on the Spanish and french getting all their goods from there. did not stop our group as we only spent the day there.

    A few pics of our day in Andorra

    I went to the Maldives for my honeymoon after we got married in Sri Lanka. Two absolutely amazing places to visit.
