I've only been up their Alps when I was in The Army and we weren't able to buy anything up the top of the mountain! :)

If you catch a sheep up there though, get them to stand on the edge of the mountain and they'll push back harder! :oops: ;) :)

Was in Switzerland two weeks ago . Beautiful country. Don't make my mistake and take Euros as their currency is Swiss francs although lots of hotels and airports take euro's . Can't say I found any more expensive than ere unless you get chocs from airport which cost me a fortune :P
Everyone speaks pretty good English , Enjoy

Stunningly beautifull place.

It IS expensive, but no worse than some other countries. Beer is at a premium, mind....

I was in Switzweland a couple of weeks ago the weather was scorching, You can eat and drink at a reasonable price in the smaller bars and cafes i found that the supermarkets were the same price as the uk and one or two the packs of booze were slightly cheaper. Ive only ever been before ski-ing this was the first summer hols there and the scenery was fantastic even beats the caribean.
