A pamporovo pete quote

Pete posted
"Last night 10 feet of snow fell on Pamporovo and all runs are fully open. The Markony is serving free beer all week and the taxi drivers in the resort are now ferrying people around the resort for nothing!"

That is what the Sun does in quoting people. Also the weathernet.tv forcasts every friday except the coming one. Convince you to book because they make every friday two weeks and more from now a heavy snow day.

Do they take us for fools?

Sorry Pete if you feel hard ...

Sorry Pete if you feel hard done by, the above quote is Petes but totally out of context and nothing in it was meant to imply any of the facts stated as true as a full quotation would have showed:

OK Jonah - what if I were to post this.........

Last night 10 feet of snow fell on Pamporovo and all runs are fully open. The Markony is serving free beer all week and the taxi drivers in the resort are now ferrying people around the resort for nothing!

If I posted that I would expect it to be removed because it's not true. (Sorry)

For the VERY SAME REASON I removed the post by Mark G as it was NOT TRUE!

Beginning to see the light now?

re: A pamporovo pete quote

People publishing things that are blatently not true. Any forcast that makes you think there is a metre of snow and 25cm to fall in a 2weeks so you will book when the snow is meagre. It was an example of missquoting. That site is one of the offenders whose link I found on this site.

If you have a problem with this site Andrew - nobody is making you use it! I have posted many many times that most of the forecasts for Bulgaria are fantasy, not just links from this site but all over the internet.

re: A pamporovo pete quote

No sorry Pete don't get the wrong idea, I am not attacking the site I am pointing out the crap, I love this site, real bodies tell it how it is, with humour, with conviction. You were right to say what you said to Mark, but some readers will be nieve and trusting, they should be aware there are some untrustworthy holiday peddlers telling half truthes out there. Goldie Locks should have got ten years in holloway for theft and breaking and entering.

Pete,

What Andrew is saying that what you said would have been taken out of context by a paper e.g. the bit that states it was a lie would have been taken off. This is what a lot of the other sites are doing ... perhaps taking the slightest fall of snow and saying a lot fell...

I can see there was no harm meant here Cool

It is a shame but as has been previously said a lot of these sites are promoters and sellers of holidays so they want you to book under false pretences as much as ...
