Welcome to Skifest
Skifest is a UK based ski club formed in 1996 by a group of like-minded friends skiing for pleasure in Europe and North America. Since its inception Skifest has grown to become one of the largest ski clubs of its kind in Europe, with more than 900 members worldwide.
We are a non-profit making ski club and run by a group of volunteers dedicated to bringing the Skifest experience to the masses. We do not charge a membership fee to our members; we simply arrange group ski holidays via tour operators and pass the cost of the holiday directly on to those members who wish to attend our trips.
Skifest's popularity has grown exponentially in-part because of our tremendous buying power, which enables us to negotiate substantial discounts with tour operators and therefore make skiing in some of the world's best resorts affordable to a wider market.
Please feel free to register and interact with your fellow Skifest members, upload your images, music and video's and chat online!!!

No 10 rejected Thomas Cook rescue plan for fear of precedent, MPs hear
Committee attacks board over bonuses and ‘misjudgments’ but directors say a £200m UK loan would have saved firm
The prime minister’s office was aware of a financial rescue plan that could have saved Thomas Cook but “didn’t want to set a precedent” by lending the company money, its former boss told MPs, as an inquiry into the tour operator’s collapse got under way.
In a sometimes bruising encounter with the business, energy and industrial strategy (BEIS) committee, Thomas Cook bosses drew stinging criticism for their role in the demise of the 178-year-old travel company.

Watchdog’s reprimand comes after failings such as markers re-marking their own work
The exam board AQA is to pay more than £1.1m in fines and compensation for a string of rule breaches, errors and failings in GCSEs and A-levels that regulators said could seriously undermine public confidence in the qualifications system.
Ofqual, which oversees school exams in England, said it had levied its largest ever fine on AQA after 50,000 appeals for exam papers to be reviewed or re-marked, spread across three years between 2016 and 2018, were carried out by AQA staff who had already marked the same papers.

Family say they are heading to Washington as they seek answers about UK collision in which 19-year-old died
The White House has asked for a meeting with the parents of Harry Dunn, the 19-year-old motorcyclist killed in a collision with a car suspected to have been driven by the wife of a US intelligence officer.
The spokesman for the family, Radd Seiger, tweeted that the White House had asked Dunn’s parents, Charlotte Charles and Tim Dunn, to come to a meeting and that they were on their way to Washington DC.

Four adults and three children were held in ‘baby jail’ in what they call ‘scariest experience’ of their lives
The Foreign Office is helping a British family of seven who were arrested in the US and subject to the “scariest experience” of their lives at the hands of the immigration authorities after inadvertently crossing the border from Canada.
David and Eileen Connors and their three-month-old son were on a family road trip on 3 October near Vancouver with David’s cousin Michael, his wife Grace, and their two-year-old twin daughters.
Continue reading...Booker winners Bernardine Evaristo and Margaret Atwood on breaking the rules
The judges staged a ‘joyful mutiny’ to name the pair joint winners of the literary prize. And that’s not all that unites them
It was clear that things were not going to plan when, just half an hour before the guests began to arrive, the judges of this year’s Booker prize had yet to make a decision. Five hours after they had begun their deliberations, they finally emerged in a state of “joyful mutiny” to announce that they had decided to break with convention, throw out the rule book and anoint two winners rather than the usual one.
By happy coincidence, Bernardine Evaristo is the same age that Margaret Atwood was when, in 2000, she first won the Booker prize with The Blind Assassin. “And I’m happy that we’ve both got curly hair,” quipped Atwood as they took to the stage arm in arm. They talk about it again the following morning, comparing notes about hair etiquette and handy products for curls. “People used to review my hair back in the day,” says Atwood.
