VAL GOSSIP FROM THE MARMOTTE TIMES

15 December 2003


Students and the big bad wolf in ValStudents, Natives and hopefully snow
Things are just about to get very strange in the next week in Val. If it’s like previous years we will expect to see tribes of Indians walking up Val high street , closely followed by a group of school girls, pursued by Ali G look-alikes.

The reason for these strange occurrences is because this week Val is playing host to over 2000 British students. Universities and colleges in town are: Birmingham, Loughborough, Strathclyde, Caledonian, Jesus, Exeter, Thomson, Henderson, Cardiff, Leeds, Southampton, and Nottingham Trent.

If all the student theme parties weren’t enough we have also got Natives in town with the first round of the Show Love tour. It looks like we aren’t going to be short of parties this week - all we need now is some snow like they have had in America.

Where’s my coat?
It is difficult enough trying to work out where you left your coat after a night on the sauce. Due to a delivery of 20,000 vestiare tickets to Dicks Tea Bar which, rather unfortunately, are identical to that of Club 21’s. It is going to be even more confusing to trace your path back in the morning in search of your ski jacket.

Snow canons in Tignes Student Watch

A girl snowboarder caught an edge getting off a lift and landed very intimately on her back binding. After being rushed to the English Medical Centre with a case of severe bruising and a dose of embarrassment her soon to be x-boyfriend was called. This was not to be a happy ending as he flatly refused to go and see her - stating that there was no point anymore (sad man).

Young Single and Easy (but don’t wake my mum)
A chalet girl took her conquest for the night back to her apartment. This, you would think, is not an unusual occurance - but to the guy’s surprise her mum was staying on the bunk below.

Part 2: Klaus the Danish Stallion
Sophie, the new Danois barmaid, had only been in the resort for 4 hours before she encountered the charms of the Danish Stallion. Klaus was last seen climbing through her window, moments later noises were heard that sounded like furniture being thrown around.

Stars in their eyes
Two guests at the Hotel Val d'Isère were seeing more than the four stars Mark Warner very generously award their flagship hotel. Big Keith, the 'executive' chef had to intervene, along with a variety of other members of the 'dark corner' hierarchy, as a ruck of punters developed. After dinner entertainments have taken on a new meaning.
