Hi you two,

Yes, Bobby said that Steve was in Boro, but I thought that he was there all day, and when we came over to Bansko, you were ill.
I do know that Steve met S.P. in Boro but I missed him.
Will send you a mail, as we get closer for a meet up!!

Tom, these are serious people, they are into gardening, mountain biking, if you've seen Steve take off on his skis would leave me & dbut in powder and Wendy can multi task, film and ski at the same time. Very Happy

S.P. Wink

S.P.
Are you on the medication again/ I am only planning to meet them just like we were supposed to do last year, when we forgot to take Steve's mobile number to Bansko.

I have no intention of trying to compete, (seen the video's on you tube) I met George Best but didn't try to take him on at ball control !!!
By the way, have seen the gardening photo on FB Eh By Gum takes me back to being a lad, gathering in with a sickle!!!
Hope your not baking to much in the sunshine, or are you ...

Well it reads well but as they still have the Super Borovets article "going for the Winter Olympics 2014" on the site I think i'll take it with a pinch of salt. Must say that I groaned when I saw Mr M's 1st contribution but found his 2nd contribution very agreeable with some good ideas. Credit when it's due. Although I didn't use the bus service to the Express way in 2012 but used it a few times in 2011 and never had to pay. So I thought that it was free.

And one other very strange thing I noticed in Borovets in need of scraping out immediately:
Borosport should abolish the stupid rules to stop the lifts sharp on the listed time right on the second.
The gates on the lift facilities exept gondola are activated by a timer controlled centrally and sharp on the second.
they close and the bosses look on the cameras that no one go (even when there is say one child gone through but the parents staying in front of the gate and not allowed to join ...

Have seen ski instructors having the last run with part of groups.
Crazy!
And that is on lifts or drag lifts high up the mountain as well as the ones in the center in front of hotels.
Very harsh and without precedent in any other ski resort in the whole wide world.

Good to highlight that one Mr M, this happened to myself with a young lad at the 4 man top of Mussalla Pathway last season gate switched off at 1530hrs. Fortunately Frazer was 13yrs so it was a long snow plough down to the rotate. But there were a number of parents with small children having to find their way down the pathway be it stumble/snow plough and the poor snow boarders well they had my sympathy that day.

S.P. Snowboarding

I must say Frazer looked in better condition than you when you entered the bar. If you hadnt already been one we would have called a paramedic.

Hi !

Here's what I've read on Bulgarian news today :

"The Bulgarian Parliament passed definitively Wednesday the controversial Forestry Act, allowing construction of ski tracks and lifts without changing the status of the land.

The amendments were backed by 75 Members of the Parliament from the ruling, center-right Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria party, GERB, and 3 independent MPs. Two from GERB and all others voted against.

109 MPs out of 240 were present ...
Hi !

The amendments were backed by 75 Members of the Parliament from the ruling, center-right Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria party, GERB, and 3 independent MPs. Two from GERB and all others voted against.

109 MPs out of 240 were present.

After a number of protests of eco activists, and inquiries with the European Commission, GERB decided to alter the initial version of the new law. It now provides that the permit for the construction of ski and other sports facilities must be established through a tender conducted by the State or the municipality, depending on ownership on the forest territories.

Despite the change, the opposition reiterated that the amendments serve lobbyist interests and would benefit a handful of companies. According to opposition MPs, the State is to lose BGN millions from the lack of fees to be paid to change the status of the lands. They further criticized the new option for construction under a public-private ownership as one of the many loopholes in the law."
