re: FAO JENNO

Hi again

Well certainly will be good to try and hook up at some with the kids, ours have a great time together but then it sometimes ends up that the 5 (nearly 6) year old and 8 year old get on well leaving poor Aoife (3) out a bit or Aoife plays with her 5 year old sis, Cliodhna, and poor Ciara gets left out! (Can you tell that my wife is Irish lol by the names?!)

But would be good if yours are 9 and 4 for them to get together maybe, we're at the Hotel Pamporovo but will be around ...

But would be good if yours are 9 and 4 for them to get together maybe, we're at the Hotel Pamporovo but will be around the slopes all day I would have thought so if we can manage to meet that'd be great - would love Aoife to have a go but I think as you say with yours last year she might only last a bit getting a feel for skis and boots etc - can't imagine her having a 'proper' lesson and being focussed enough to last too long.

Really hope they all take to it and enjoy it as I've done a bit before but am hoping the family get bitten by the bug too so it can be a yearly thing - fingers crossed!

re: FAO JENNO

I Love the names - beautiful! - Im not sure if you know but we all Irish also. My little girl (Roisha) has just turned 4 in november is Aoife nearly 4 or early 3? I know what you mean about her tending to get left out - we have such a big gap between the 9 and 4 year old they have a love/hate relationship lol Anyway I would be very very surprised if they dont take to it - and they will really catch on quicker than you will ever imagine - put us adults to shame really. As for rosiha ski ...

As for rosiha ski lesson, it will probably be only for two hours and to be honest there will be alot of the fun element put into it also, with sledging etc As I said before we now have bulgarian friends as our contacts are involved in an orphanage out there so we have helped them out with fundraising etc. I really feel we have friends for life out there. The kids would love the Perlick hotel bowling, swimming, amusements etc but be prepared to spend a fortune. I know the kids will have us tortued to go there again this year so I imagine we may head down early in the week poss mon - if you guys are around?

ps you couldnt have picked a better place to introduce the kids to ski! Fantastic for adult beginners also

re: FAO JENNO

She's nearer 4 than 3, she'll be 4 this July. They'd love bowling and the swimming so certainly if we hook up one evening they'll have a ball am sure!

I'm technically the only UK passport holder in our group - the girls all have Irish ones, and on top of the 5 of us my parents in law are going, 2 brothers in law, 1 fiancee and 1 sister in law - all Irish - am somewhat outnumbered - good drinking partners though lol!

Would love to meet some regular Pamp goers and as I say if all enjoy it would be great to think we could make an annual event of it! Very Happy

re: FAO JENNO

Well there's enough of us to alternate nights out while others keep the girls occupied so will just make sure the 'younger ones' of our party (of which I include myself - at 33 I don't feel like a spring chicken anymore lol!) make it to Daks to coincide with you guys!

Whereabouts in Ireland do you hail from?

re: FAO JENNO

We all late 30's - although was over last week with a friend ( no kids) and now feel more like 80 lol - spent far too much time in Daks We range from Derry, Belfast and Co Fermanage - although I have strong southern connections with Co Louth Hooking up there would be great!

re: FAO JENNO

Everyone needs a blow out now and again - am not planning on the kids being present to rein me in too much - will just have to smile through the tiredness and hangovers tho time on the slopes soon get rid of those!

Our lot live either in Dub. or Arklow (Wicklow, tho they're just outside on the Wexford border) but originally my parents in law are from Co Cork and Co Meath. Am sure we'll cross paths and if early in the week can sort getting the kids together to play - just look out for a ...

Am sure we'll cross paths and if early in the week can sort getting the kids together to play - just look out for a lone English (slightly scouse!) accent surrounded by Irish ones and that'll be us!
