re: BOROVETS UPDATE - 8TH JAN

Hi
I've just rang Inghams to see about changing to Bansko and they are telling me it will cost through the nose.
They are also saying that there are 15cm on the lower slopes and 40cm on the upper with 5 out of 12 runs open. This they say is from the reps in the resort.
I think i will continue follow Kaz's honest and reliable reports.
I will also be giving rakia a miss!!!
Out on the 16th here's praying
Thanks Kaz
Smile

Hi All,

Coming out from Gatwick (fingers crossed) tomorrow with other half. We are first time boarders (I didn't fancy skiing on own while other half in boarding lessons - so giving it a shot - I hope). Gutted about the snow, but will be happy enough if I get to learn a bit of boarding. I think I'd have felt worse if I was coming to ski.

Anyway, thanks for all the updates, Kas, nice to know what the score is even if the news isn’t always good. Maybe see you all in the Titanic. ...
