There is a swiss rule that parties of auslanders cannot exceed more than 10 on the ski slopes.

Your thoughts please.

What do they do when the whole British Parliament comes every year then?
I think all Brits should be exempt as auslanders anyway as far as the piste quota is concerned.

As far as recreational skiing in Swizerland is concerned (and possibly all downhill skiing as a tourist activity) the infrastructure only was started in the 1910s because of the Brits coming over and taking it up.

I read somewhere that it all started in Murren (even before Sir Arnold Lunn).
