You seen a Bulgarian cabbie? barely shaved ape, most of them. Better to be ripped off 100 euro than get a wrench around your wife's head.

Then again.....

Well Roger imagine the situation it was 4.45am in the middle of an construction site becasue the road to ou complex was not complete. Wife already in tears as I was already having an argurement with the cabbie and then you think about you children age 2 and 7 back at home.
Yes as I thought you pay the man and walk away.

"he did not speak a word of english"
Imagine going to somebody else's country and they have the cheek not to speak to you in your mother tongue....



"(he did not know where he was going )"
Would a taxi driver from Manchester know his way around Birmingham?

We got caught out in a bar in bansko in the square, think it was called amniesa or something like that.
Around 18 of us had a drink and before you no it bills started landing on our table that we couldnt read to question and before we new it we were asked to pay a bill that was around £120.00 which we did pay and leave.
Very tricky to argue not being able to read or speak bulgarian.
Im sure this goes on in borovets as well but as we have a few bulgarian friends we tend to go out with them ...

As much as i love bulgaria you do seem to have to be on the look out to not get riped off.
