# I recommend this place
www.chillfactore.com/

It is fantastic but ludicrously expensive.

# THe only snow dome ive been to is in castleford, and we were on a shitty drry slope in shitty sunderland
but I prefer my snow on mountains which are alot bigger then the biggest snow domes we have over here, they are useful, but you are at the bottom in seconds really :(

# What you need is a perpetual slope.
We must consult physics and the ghost of MC Escher immediately!

# That and the fact you've been skiing.

Does that count?

# I've been skiing all over Europe
as well as the odd time I'm near enough to Aviemore on the day it snows enough for skiing.

I have to say that this is without doubt the best indoor experience in Europe. The place is huge and dominates the skyline. It is however geared less for tutoring and fun, more towards squeezing every penny out of you while you are there. They won't even let you on the slopes unless you pay to be scrutinized by a teacher who decides if you are capable of skiing or need to pay for 3 beginner lessons.
But once you get on the slope it's as good as you can possibly expect from an indoor slope.

# Yeah it looks pretty big for an indoor real snow one, well from teh website anyway
But most of our skiing experiences mainly consist of getting rather drunk and being dicks, and by the sounds of it, thats not the establishment to be doing such things :D
Im going to val thorens in january, so that should be a hoot hopefully, I hope the snow is as good as it was last january in les arcs :D

# I don't ski as much these days being an
arthritic old man but my wife introduced me to it.
My personal favourite for all round holiday experience has always been Kitzbühel but considering my wife arranges it all with her Sloane ranger mates and there are usually 10 of us off for a piss up, we generally end up in Courchevel or Val Thorens. You will be unlucky not to get good snow at Val.
