'Some of these people
are really ghastly. They sleep rough in apartments
and on the floor of chalets and roam the streets at night
with dustbin liners instead of anoraks.'
'During one end
of season party louts gave the village donkey a pail full
of alcohol which the donkey drank and then dropped dead.'
Both of the above are
genuine quotes from Jean-Marie Choffel, Méribel's resort
director. Natives would like to know if there is any
truth in these statements - are dustbin liners in fashion?
Did they dead donkey get dropped? Mail
