Just booked!!!

Thankyou Thomas Cook- it may have takem two hours but we got there in the end!

Booked in to Murgavets from 5th Feb and can't wait. Balkan Holidays had sold out of all flights from Gatwick for that week. Stayed in the Pamporovo Hotel last year, but have heard many a good thing about Murgavets.
Just a number of questions:-

Booked in to Murgavets from 5th Feb and can't wait. Balkan Holidays had sold out of all flights from Gatwick for that week. Stayed in the Pamporovo Hotel last year, but have heard many a good thing about Murgavets.
Just a number of questions:-
(1) Started in beginners class last year (had been before) but it was a little on the slow side. The problem is that I am going with my son who only went for the first time. We want to ski together in a class - what shall I do?
(2) If you buy a bell on day one do they all leave you alone?
(3) My flight home with Crystal is just before midnight - does that mean I can get an extra days skiing in? Does anyone know if this is easy to organise?
(4) I am not going to ask about the web cam?!
(5) Question for Pamps Pete - are you there at the same time; if so how do I recognisde you - do you wear a badge??
(6) Does anyone know if instructor Mima Georgova is still working in the resort? My son loved her (as did I).

Sorry for all my questions but I can't wait and I also hear it is going to snow this weekend.

If you but a bell on day one its not an immunity device Im afraid. They still pester you, but they are no where near as bad as time share.

Just ask to stay together. They might try and put you into separate groups if one of you is better than the other but it is your holiday so it is up to you.
You should be able to get an extra day in on your last day but will have to pay for everything loacaly. I dont think the bell sellers would leave you alone even if you brought all of there bells!

What sort of bells do they sell, not that I want to buy one, just interested in what to avoid!!

Sorry Richie, you arrive in the Morgavets the day we leave Sad

Apologies in advance if you get my room.
Fag burns in the bed, Vodka bottles in the bath, and I wont begin to explain what you'll find in the bog Surprised

Will make sure there is plenty of snow for you before we leave. Razz
