La plagne

I'm now in la plagne, living in one of our chalets waiting for staff accommodation to be ready on Saturday. La plagne seems nice, it's a real ski resort though, lots of 70's style apartment blocks, no snow unfortunately yet, causing a bit of concern at the minute as the forecast keeps changing! It's warm and sunny here, but real cold at night.

We've been here two days, cleaning and drinking! Last night we went to scotty's, had good laugh, met a few people working for Mark warner, there arent many Seasonnaires here yet.

My chalet is beautiful, as you can see below and the views are incredible! In fact this whole area is stunning and will look much better in the snow!

My staff accom might, if I'm lucky, have a clear view of mont blanc! It's weird here, like the resort is perched on the side of the cliff! Different to the other resorts I've worked in before, we feel very high!!

Oh the other fun thing that happened was Natwest blocking my card because my spending pattern resembled recent fraud activity picked up by the bank! So one long phone call later I was able to get at my money again! I was mainly annoyed because I had told them I was coming abroad!

Right, I think lunch is over so I had better get back on with sorting my chalet! Am currently organising the kitchen to exactly as I want it! It's a bit sad but I'm really enjoying getting it sorted out :-)
