After creeking out of bed, the plan was for the Sarenne run this morning, reported to be the longest black run in Europe at 16km. The start of the run is at the highest reachable peak, without the use of a helicopter, and is known as Pic Blanc. It took ages to get up there as we had to take a double gondola and then another cable car to the top, but the views were amazing!
A superb filet steak in peppercorn sauce with french fries was scoffed for lunch in a nice little place along the Sarenne Gorge. The restaurant had an interesting relief map with accompanying magnifying glass which was quite fun. I just about managed to locate Alpe d'Huez and the range of mountains we were on known as Les Grand Rousses.
After lunch, Gav and I found a great powder field just off the ridge at the end of the chair lift back towards Alpe d'Huez.
Once again, we made our way to Crowded House for slightly more subdued apres ski...
I have been urged to write something here about an incident occurring just before our main course at dinner in the chalet, when a foul pot of orange stuff was placed before us all... As Gav later exclaimed at around 4am the following morning, water and carrots mixed together do not make carrot soup, but this is pretty much what we were served! Bizarrely, some of the carrot was in big chunks, whilst some of it was grated; either way it was all sitting in orange coloured water and to make matters even worse, the salt had run out 
Eight of us made it down to Lily Muldoon's for their weekly pub quiz and split into two teams. Myself, Gavin, Stu and Vicki on one team and Liz, Gav, Andy and Dave in another team. After a healthy competition with plenty of banter and some loudly whispered answers (Andy!) the scores were like Bobby Davro's impressions... both exactly the same.
After the quiz, we moved onto Smithy's for a game of KILLER except we only played up to KIL as the full game would have taken too long. My beer-addled brain struggled to make out the rules, but I just about got there in the end - I'm not sure if I've ever played it before, to be honest... Dave 'The Power' Beryl finished off the game with a 3-dart flourish!
It was Rock, Pop, Electropop night in Igloo so we had to pay a visit there... More boozing and dancing...
