Probably eBay, I know! We're taking DSs, 7 and 9 to a Center Parcs in Holland with a ski slope and I want to get them at least suitable trousers but cheaply as they'll be there all of 5 days! Any ideas?

tchibo and lidl have ski stuff occasionally

FranSanDisco · 10/01/2008 15:18

Millets had a lot in - some reduced thermals and hats. TK Maxx always has loads and pretty reasonable prices.

Thanks very much! You've saved me a trawl around every shop in Southampton- and the problem of sizing with all-in-ones on ebay (lots of '140cms- suit 11 year old' Wot, midget??)! Ski Warehouse looks like a good idea, too. Thanks for the link. I feel more relaxed about it now. I mean, I still have to BOOK the CP, the ferry, the (probably) overnights in Belgium on the way there and home, check there won't be issues with nearly- expired passports, insuring the car for Europe- oh, you know the stuff that makes you go soddit, Dorset camping it is again!
