Make the bash a 2 week thing? Not cheap but saving on 2 flights might make it cheaper.
If not, slovakia/bulgaria if they are getting snow |

| Bansko is a great place if you wake up early to miss queues and epic if they have snow. |

Agree with Dashie. Why not make your holiday two weeks? Save on flights and travel costs.
I can second Slovakia for cheap, too. |

two weeks for the WB wouldn't be possible as being away from work 1 week at time is hard enough because there's only me that can do certain things lol else id book 2 weeks. So its going to have to be 2 separate weeks.
the week in bansko what catering is that? |

Thanks Tom
Crystal ski deals are based on 4 people sharing, when you go solo prices go up!  |

Can't complain when work tell you you need to go on holiday!
Surprised they don't carry over the days though. Thought that was common practice. |

Mate if your on your own try the neilson places that are for solos.
They don't add a premium for being on your own in a twin room.
I went to Austria in Jan on my own with Neilson for £600 inc flights, lift passes, accommodation and half board.
