We first met in 2017 when we bought an apartment in 360° on Route du Bonde. Nicholas and Jane met on the road outside the McGarry’s chalet and we were invited for drinks on New Year’s Eve.
Livi and Charlie hit it off immediately with Tamsen and Kirsty and spent many evenings together in the Avalanche Bar.
Ian and Jane have hosted the whole family for dinner and drinks over the last few years we have known you. We adore the champagne cocktails, smoked salmon spreads and particularly enjoyed Jane’s apricot chicken dish.
Ian gave Gloriana the best skiing advice she has ever received, without even seeing her ski – ‘to steer with your toes and think of nothing else.’
During the famous ‘Beast from the East’ Ian saved Charlie’s bacon by helping her get her car up the snowy drive so she could get home, using a mat so her wheels could find some grip and offering many words of reassurance and encouragement.
Even though it hasn’t been that long, we feel like we have known Ian, Jane, Tamsen and Kirsty for decades! Thank you for making us feel part of the Chatel family.
Lots of love The Pages (Gloriana, Nicholas, Livi and Charlie) xxx
