Currency speculation 

It’s been raining on and off all day, so we’ve done some cleaning and had a tidy up. The village is getting much quieter now, and with fresh snow up high almost every day people are beginning to talk about winter.

With that in mind we need to consider the annual ski pass conundrum. In an attempt to attract more skiers the price of passes has been reduced by about 30% for the coming season. Despite this it’s still our biggest purchase of the year, so we try to buy at a time when the UK pound is a bit stronger than usual. Today is such a day – UK inflation figures have driven the pound up against the Swiss franc. 

So here are our winter passes. In addition to being a lot cheaper than last year they also cover the nearby resorts of Gstaad, Meiringen and Adelboden. 

Pray for snow.
