REMEMBER THE BASICS........

A few basic tips for Bulgarian first-timers.

To nod your head in Bulgaria means NO.
To shake your head in Bulgaria means YES.

Remember to pack the following home luxuries.
Soft Toliet Rolls. (If you are from up north.... that means Bog Rolls Wink)
Your favourite coffee. (Bulgarian coffee can be a bit strong in some hotels.)
2 pin round plug adaptors. (all UK electrical goods will work fine with these.)
Batteries for all your appliances. (Batteries are dear in Bulgaria.)
Brown Sauce ...

re: REMEMBER THE BASICS........



Good tip then thanx very much !!

Is there an internet cafe or Hotel with a comp in Pamps ?

Is the coffee like turkish Mokka ? ( you think they forgot the filter )

If we get there at 3.30 in the morning do they really expect us to start lessons at 10 ish ? If we dip out until after lunch will we fall behind and be a pain to the instructors ?

Can't wait ! Even had to cut golf to 9 holes on Sun mates think I have my priorities all wrong !!!

re: REMEMBER THE BASICS........

The coffe is italian like. If you get real bulgarian coffe made in a Dscheswe it is stronger as turkish mokka. But much better in the taste as filter coffee, which the most people in wetsren europe join..

No there isn't Darren, those shops are gone. I'm sure another will be re-sited elsewhere though.

Dave, I would recommend that you do make the effort to be there on time on your first day as that is when you will be issued your lift pass and meet your instructor for the first time. The very first lesson is probably the most important you will ever have, as they will teach you how to stand up, and more important, how to stop in control.

Have an early night the day before mate and blow ...
